Heard McElroy & Vestal Reports Data Breach

Heard, McElroy & Vestal recently reported a data breach to the Attorney General of Vermont, indicating that sensitive personal information may have been compromised. The incident was first identified around February 21, 2024, when the firm noticed a suspicious email rule in one of its employee’s accounts. This discovery prompted an internal investigation to understand the extent of the breach. Following a thorough review, it was found that an unauthorized individual might have accessed personal data during this event.

The compromised information could vary depending on the individual, but it potentially includes names and Social Security numbers. Upon realizing the scale of the breach, the firm immediately began assessing the situation to identify the affected individuals. This process of identifying impacted parties was concluded on August 29, 2024. The firm undertook a comprehensive review to determine the specific details of the data exposure.

As a part of their response, Heard, McElroy & Vestal began mailing data breach notification letters to the affected individuals on September 20, 2024. The firm outlined the types of information that may have been exposed and offered affected individuals complimentary credit monitoring services. This proactive measure was taken to help individuals safeguard their personal information following the breach.

Heard, McElroy & Vestal, based in Shreveport, Louisiana, is a well-established public accounting and consulting firm with a broad service area. Founded in 1946, the firm offers a wide range of services, including audit, tax, retirement planning, and business valuation. With over 150 employees, the firm operates throughout Louisiana, Arkansas, Texas, Kansas, New Mexico, Colorado, Mississippi, and Tennessee, providing expert financial consulting to businesses, families, and individuals.
