CDMP: Cyrus D. Mehta & Partners Data Breach Investigation

CDMP Reports Data Breach Affecting Sensitive Personal Information

CDMP, a Vermont-based organization, disclosed a data breach in which unauthorized access to sensitive personal identifiable information (PII) may have occurred. The incident was detected on or around May 11, 2025, after suspicious activity was identified within its technical environment. Following an investigation, CDMP confirmed that an unauthorized third party accessed and potentially acquired PII stored in its systems.

The exposed data varies by individual but may include:

  • Full names
  • Social Security numbers
  • Addresses
  • Demographic details
  • Dates of birth
  • Government-issued identification (e.g., passports)
  • Other personal identifiers

On December 31, 2025, CDMP began mailing breach notification letters to affected individuals, detailing the specific types of compromised information. As part of its response, the organization is offering complimentary credit monitoring services to impacted parties. The breach notice was filed with the Attorney General of Vermont, where additional details are available.
