Smith-Midland Corporation data breach

Clerk's notes

Smith-Midland Corporation, an industrial and construction supplier based in Indiana, officially reported a data security incident on August 3, 2026. The breach, which was detected following an event on January 9, 2025, is currently under monitoring, with the specific details of the intrusion remaining unspecified.

This incident potentially compromised a range of highly sensitive personal information. The exposed data categories include Full Name, Social Security Number, Date of Birth, Wage and Compensation Information, Tax Return Information, Direct Deposit Account Details, Mailing Address, and Phone Number.

The exposure of such comprehensive personal and financial identifiers carries significant risks for affected individuals. Social Security Numbers and Dates of Birth are frequently leveraged by fraudsters for identity theft, potentially leading to unauthorized accounts, credit applications, or even tax fraud. Direct Deposit Account Details further expose individuals to potential financial account compromise.
