Kurt J. Lesker Company, a manufacturer and distributor of vacuum science technology, reported a data breach to the Vermont Attorney General on September 16, 2026.

The exposed information includes Full Name, Social Security Number, Date of Birth, Mailing Address, Wage and Compensation Information, Direct Deposit Account Details, Tax Return Information, and Phone Number.

Additionally, the exposure of employment and compensation records can lead to sophisticated phishing attempts aimed at exploiting professional relationships.

Companies like Kurt J. Lesker Company have a legal obligation to protect the personal information they collect and store. A data breach suggests that security measures may not have been sufficient to prevent unauthorized access to sensitive data entrusted to them.
