The Vermont Office of the Attorney General reported a data breach involving Hamilton Investment LLC on January 18, 2024. The breach occurred on September 20, 2023, when a malware infection on a third-party managed server potentially exposed personal information, including names, dates of birth, addresses, social security numbers, financial account information, and income-related information of clients. While there is no evidence that any personal data was misused, the company offered identity protection services to those potentially affected.
