Investigation notes

Curtland Company PC, a professional services firm operating in Indiana, formally reported a data security incident to state authorities on August 7, 2026. The company confirmed that an unauthorized party accessed its systems on March 17, 2026.

The investigation will seek to confirm the full extent of the data exfiltrated and the period of unauthorized access.

Under Indiana state law and common legal principles, organizations that collect and store sensitive personal data have a duty to implement reasonable security safeguards.
