Infotree Global Solutions, a staffing and payroll firm that connects employers with contract and permanent talent, has notified state regulators of a data security incident involving current and former employees. Attorneys are looking into whether the company took reasonable steps to prevent sensitive personal information from being sent to an unauthorized party, since companies that handle Social Security numbers and other personal data have a duty to protect it.

Infotree Global Solutions’s Data Breach Investigation

According to a notification letter sent by counsel for Infotree Topco, LLC, doing business as Infotree Global Solutions, to the New Hampshire Attorney General on September 18, 2026, an Infotree employee inadvertently emailed documents containing the personal information of certain current and former employees to an unauthorized actor on July 31, 2026. Infotree states that it began an investigation immediately upon learning of the incident and reviewed the files to determine what information they contained.

The company’s review determined that the emailed documents included the name, address, and Social Security number of at least one New Hampshire resident, and the notification indicates that other current or former employees whose information was in the same files may also have been affected. Infotree has offered the notified individual a complimentary membership in credit monitoring and identity protection services and says it has taken additional, unspecified steps to strengthen its security measures following the incident.

Misdirected-email incidents like this one are a common but often underappreciated source of workplace data breaches, since a single mistaken send can expose payroll or HR files containing Social Security numbers, dates of birth, and other sensitive employee records for an entire group of people at once. Because the information here appears to have come from personnel or payroll files, current and former employees of Infotree who were not personally notified may still want to confirm with the company whether their own records were included.

When Did This Breach Occur?

Infotree states that the incident occurred on July 31, 2026, when an employee inadvertently emailed the documents to an unauthorized actor. The company says it began its investigation upon learning of the incident and determined by August 14, 2026, that the exposed files included a W-2 statement containing the affected individual’s name, address, and Social Security number. Notification letters were mailed on September 18, 2026.

What Information Was Breached?

Based on the notification letter, the information involved included the affected individual’s full name, home address, and Social Security number, taken from a W-2 tax document. Because the underlying files described in the notice covered multiple current and former employees, it is possible that other individuals had similar categories of information included in the same misdirected email.

What You Can Do

  • If you are a current or former employee of Infotree Global Solutions, confirm with the company whether your personal information was among the files involved in this incident.
  • Enroll in any complimentary credit monitoring or identity protection services offered by Infotree.
  • Monitor your bank and credit card statements closely for unfamiliar activity.
  • Consider placing a fraud alert or credit freeze with Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion as a precaution.
  • Be cautious of phishing emails, calls, or texts referencing this incident, since scammers often try to exploit news of a data breach before all the facts are confirmed.
