Ortec Reveals Breach Impacting Personal Data

On May 28, 2024, Ortec, Inc., a custom chemical manufacturing and research company based in Easley, Oregon, experienced a disruption in its network. The company immediately took action to secure its network environment and enlisted cybersecurity experts to investigate the incident. The investigation revealed that certain files had been accessed without authorization, and the company conducted a thorough review to determine the extent of the data compromised.

By September 5, 2024, Ortec confirmed that some personal information was involved in the breach. The compromised data potentially included individuals’ names and Social Security numbers. However, no evidence of identity theft or misuse of this data has been reported to date. Ortec emphasized its commitment to transparency by notifying affected individuals and providing relevant details regarding the breach.

In response to the breach, Ortec worked swiftly to implement additional security measures to prevent future incidents. These steps included tightening access controls and enhancing monitoring systems to detect suspicious activity. The company also reported the breach to federal authorities and is cooperating with the Federal Bureau of Investigation to hold the perpetrators accountable.

Ortec has committed to maintaining vigilance over its systems to ensure the security and confidentiality of its data. While the breach was contained, the company is continuing to evaluate and strengthen its security protocols to minimize the risk of similar incidents in the future.
