Investigation notes

Mfort Security Services PLLC, an Indiana-based security firm, officially reported a data security incident to state authorities on September 3, 2026. This report confirms an unauthorized exposure of sensitive personal information that occurred on or around August 10, 2026. The incident raises questions regarding the safeguards Mfort Security Services PLLC had in place to protect the highly confidential data it manages.

According to the filing, the exposed information includes Full Name, Social Security Number, Date of Birth, Mailing Address, Employment History, Security Clearance Information, Phone Number, and Email Address.
