Alpine Limousine Service, Inc. has notified at least one individual that a security incident may have affected the privacy of certain personal information the company holds. Companies that collect personal information from customers and employees have a responsibility to protect that data, and to notify people promptly when it may have been exposed.

Alpine Limousine Service’s Data Breach Investigation

Alpine Limousine Service reported that it experienced an incident that may have affected the privacy of certain information the company had on file. In response, the company stated that it reset passwords, conducted a thorough investigation, notified law enforcement, and reviewed its internal policies and procedures related to data security. The notification letter, sent by the company’s Chief Financial Officer, indicated the affected information could have included the recipient’s name along with certain other personal data elements specific to that individual, though the notification did not specify a company-wide list of every data type involved for every recipient.

Notices like this one are often filed with a state Attorney General’s office as part of a company’s legal obligation once it determines that residents of that state may have been affected, which is how this incident became publicly known. Smaller service-based businesses, including transportation and limousine companies, are increasingly targeted by cybercriminals precisely because they may not have the same level of dedicated cybersecurity resources as larger corporations, even though they routinely collect and store sensitive customer information such as names, contact details, and payment information.

When a data breach notification does not specify an exact list of compromised data types for every individual, it is often because the company’s internal review identified that different recipients had different categories of information exposed, depending on their specific relationship with the business. Regardless of the precise combination, exposed personal information can be used by bad actors to attempt phishing scams, apply for credit fraudulently, or otherwise impersonate the affected individual, which is why credit monitoring and vigilant review of financial statements are recommended in the aftermath of any such notification.
