Bad actors have breached the fintech brokerage firm US Tiger Securities, placing the personal and financial info of 26,985 people at risk.
US Tiger Securities, which is affiliated with the brokerage firm TradeUP Securities, disclosed the breach in a government filing last week.
The firm says some of its files were copied by an unauthorized third party last July.
“On July 10, 2025, we discovered that we were the target of a cybersecurity incident and that files were encrypted in our virtual back-office environment that supports the shared back-office functions of both US Tiger and TradeUP.
As soon as we became aware of this incident, we promptly engaged legal counsel to provide legal advice for an investigation into the incident, who in turn engaged a cybersecurity firm to conduct a forensic investigation.”
US Tiger has not publicly disclosed the types of personal information that was stolen. The law firm Migliaccio & Rathod LLP, says it’s investigating the breach and impacted data could include names, addresses, Social Security numbers, driver’s license numbers, government-issued ID numbers (including Passport or State ID Numbers), medical information and health insurance info.
US Tiger says it is implementing additional safeguards and technical security measures to prevent future data breaches. The firm is also offering impacted clients two years’ worth of credit monitoring and identity theft protection services from Experian IdentityWorks.
