In June 2024, TPI experienced a network disruption that led to the discovery of unauthorized access to specific files on its network. The incident prompted an immediate investigation with third-party cybersecurity specialists to determine the breach’s extent. It was later revealed that files containing employee information had been accessed without authorization between March and June of that year.
Following the discovery, TPI conducted a detailed analysis to identify the type of information compromised and the specific individuals impacted. During the review, TPI identified data relating to TPI employees, including data relevant to one resident of New Hampshire who may have been affected. As a precautionary measure, TPI notified potentially impacted individuals through direct mail on August 13, 2024.
While TPI found no evidence of data misuse, the organization is offering complimentary credit monitoring and identity protection services to those affected. This effort aims to support individuals potentially impacted and help mitigate any risks related to the exposure of personal data. The company’s response underscores its commitment to maintaining data security and transparency in addressing potential risks.
In response to the incident, TPI has bolstered its cybersecurity measures to further protect its network from unauthorized access. The organization is also revising its data protection policies to minimize the likelihood of similar breaches in the future, signaling its proactive stance on data security and commitment to safeguarding employee information.
