What happened in the Harper Executive Group data breach

Harper Executive Group experienced a network disruption and promptly launched an investigation. The company engaged third-party specialists which determined that certain information within the company's systems was subject to unauthorized access or acquisition on or around March 3, 2025.

After discovering the disruption, the company worked to identify the data at risk and began a detailed review to determine what types of information may have been affected and which individuals were involved.

Upon completing its review, the company determined that certain personal information may have been impacted.

The range of information potentially exposed included personally identifiable information (PII) such as names, Social Security numbers, dates of birth, driver's license numbers, state ID card numbers, government-issued ID numbers (such as passports), financial account numbers and credit or debit card numbers.

The breach also potentially exposed protected health information (PHI), including medical information and health insurance information.

Steps to take if your information was exposed

• Place a credit freeze with all three credit bureaus by contacting Equifax (1-888-298-0045), Experian (1-888-397-3742) and TransUnion (1-800-680-7289) to help prevent new accounts from being opened using stolen information.
• Request free credit reports at AnnualCreditReport.com and review them carefully for unfamiliar accounts or credit inquiries.
