IMA Diligence Services recently disclosed a cybersecurity incident involving unauthorized access to a legacy file server. The breach may have exposed sensitive personal information belonging to hundreds of individuals, including Social Security numbers, driver’s license numbers, and financial account information.
IMA Diligence Services’s Data Breach Investigation
IMA Diligence Services, LLC (“IMA Diligence”), a Wichita, Kansas-based company, recently reported a data security incident involving a legacy file server hosted by a third-party provider. According to information submitted to state regulators, the company became aware of suspicious activity affecting the server on or about December 16, 2025.
After discovering the activity, IMA Diligence immediately retained third-party cybersecurity specialists to conduct a forensic investigation and determine the nature and scope of the incident. The investigation revealed that an unauthorized actor had gained access to the legacy file server and acquired certain files stored within the environment. The affected server has since been decommissioned and is no longer in use.
Following the forensic investigation, IMA Diligence undertook a comprehensive review of the affected files to determine what information may have been involved and identify the individuals whose information was potentially impacted. The review concluded that sensitive personal information was present within the affected files.
According to the company’s disclosure, the information that may have been subject to unauthorized access included names, driver’s license numbers, Social Security numbers, and financial account information. Exposure of this combination of personal and financial information can increase the risk of identity theft, account fraud, financial fraud, and other forms of misuse.
The incident affected approximately 200 New Hampshire residents. On or about May 29, 2026, IMA Diligence began mailing notification letters to impacted individuals explaining the incident and providing resources to help protect against identity theft and fraud.
In response to the breach, IMA Diligence notified federal law enforcement and reported the incident to relevant state regulators. The company also stated that it is implementing additional safeguards and employee training designed to strengthen security and reduce the likelihood of future incidents.
To assist affected individuals, IMA Diligence is offering 12 months of complimentary credit monitoring services through TransUnion. The company also provided information regarding fraud alerts, credit freezes, free credit reports, and additional identity theft protection measures.
