Whittaker & Company has notified individuals that an unauthorized actor got into its computer network between February 28, 2025, and March 13, 2025, and copied certain documents during that time. This falls under hacking or system intrusion, meaning someone gained access to internal systems rather than tricking an employee through email or losing a physical device. The company says it secured its systems, brought in a cybersecurity firm to investigate, and reported the incident to law enforcement. It then reviewed the affected files and, on May 29, 2025, confirmed that some of them contained personal information belonging to the people it is now contacting.
