UFP Technologies, Inc., a Newburyport, Massachusetts manufacturer, was listed in the Vermont Attorney General’s security breach notice register on November 5, 2026. The listing names several categories of sensitive personal data.

The register entry gives few details about what happened. This page explains what the listing does and does not say.

UFP Technologies’s Data Breach Investigation

UFP Technologies, Inc. appears in the Vermont Attorney General’s security breach notice register with a report date of November 5, 2026. Vermont law requires a company to tell the Attorney General when a data security breach affects a Vermont resident, and the state publishes a summary of each report. The summary lists the name of the reporting organization, the type of organization, the number of Vermont residents affected, and the categories of data involved. The state does not publish the notice letter itself on that page. UFP is listed as an Other Commercial organization, and the register shows one Vermont resident affected.

The register names five categories of data: Social Security numbers, government ID numbers, financial account codes, credit and debit account information, and health records. That is a wide mix. The listing does not say which categories apply to which person, so one individual’s notice may name only some of them. The notice you receive is the best guide to what was involved in your own case.

The register entry does not describe what happened. It gives no date for the breach, does not say how an unauthorized person got in, and does not say who was responsible. It also gives no total number of people affected. The count of one covers Vermont residents only. Companies notify people state by state, so a single Vermont resident says little about the total across the country, and this page does not guess at a national figure.

Separately, UFP Technologies told investors in an SEC filing in February 2026 that it had detected suspicious activity in its information technology systems on or about February 14, 2026. According to that filing, the incident affected many but not all of the company’s systems, including functions such as billing and label making for customer deliveries. The company said certain company or company-related data appeared to have been stolen or destroyed. It also said it had determined that certain files were exfiltrated, while it was still investigating whether any personal information was among them, and that it was evaluating what legal and regulatory notifications might be required.

The Vermont register does not say whether the November 5, 2026 filing relates to that February event, and this page does not claim that it does. The company’s own statement that it was still reviewing whether personal information was involved is useful background, because a review of that kind often has to finish before a company can send notices. Whether the two are connected is a question only the company can answer, and it may say more in the notice letters it sends.

UFP has not said whose information was involved. Manufacturers hold records on current and former employees, job applicants and their dependents, and also on business contacts at customers and suppliers. The health records category stands out in a listing for a commercial company. It may point to employment-related benefit or leave records, but the register does not say that, and this page does not guess at it. People who think they may be affected should look to the notice they receive for the real explanation.

The combination of data categories in the listing is serious. A Social Security number together with a government ID number gives someone most of what they need to apply for credit in another person’s name. Financial account and card information can be used to attempt fraudulent charges or account takeovers. Health records can be used for medical identity theft, in which someone obtains care or files claims using another person’s coverage, and they can be sensitive on their own. Unlike a password, a Social Security number cannot be easily changed, so the risk can last for years. That is why people who receive this kind of notice should take protective steps now and keep checking their credit over time.

Anyone who received a letter from UFP Technologies, Inc. should read it closely and keep it, along with any enrollment instructions for protection services. If you think you were affected but have not received a notice, this page cannot tell you whether your information was involved, and only the company can answer that. The facts here come only from the Vermont Attorney General’s register and the company’s own public statements, and they may change if the company shares more.

When Did This Breach Occur?

The Vermont register shows that the report was made on November 5, 2026. It does not give a date for the breach itself or a date when the company found it.

UFP’s February 2026 SEC filing says the company detected suspicious activity on or about February 14, 2026. The Vermont listing does not say whether that is the same event as this notice, so treat the two dates as separate facts until the company says more.

What Information Was Breached?

The Vermont register lists these categories: Social Security numbers, government ID numbers, financial account codes, credit and debit account information, and health records.

The listing does not say which items apply to which people. The notice you receive is the best indication of what was involved in your case.

What You Can Do

If you received a notice related to UFP Technologies or believe you may be affected, consider these steps:

  • Read the notice carefully and keep it, along with any enrollment details for protection services it offers.
  • Because the listing includes financial account and card information, contact your bank or card issuer if anything looks wrong, and watch for medical bills or insurance claims you do not recognize.
  • Place a free fraud alert or a credit freeze with Equifax, Experian and TransUnion, and get your reports free at annualcreditreport.com.
  • Review bank, card and insurance statements for anything you do not recognize.
  • Be skeptical of unexpected calls, texts or emails that mention the incident, and report suspected identity theft to the Federal Trade Commission at identitytheft.gov.
