National class action law firm offers free, confidential case evaluations to Tradier Brokerage customers and others whose personal information may have been exposed.

NEWTOWN, Pa., Oct. 30, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Edelson Lechtzin LLP, a national class action law firm, is investigating data privacy claims arising from a data breach affecting Tradier Brokerage Inc., a Charlotte, North Carolina-based online broker-dealer. Anyone who received a breach notice or believes their information may have been exposed can request a free case evaluation.

What Happened

On August 28, 2026, a cyberattack targeted Etna Software Corporation, a third-party vendor that provides the order management system and pre-trade controls Tradier uses to operate its brokerage business. Tradier became aware of the incident on September 3, 2026. Tradier has said that its own internal network was not compromised and remained secure throughout the incident, and that the breach was limited to systems and data held by Etna.

Tradier began notifying affected customers by email and disclosed the incident to the California Attorney General. According to regulatory filings, the incident has affected 9,404 Texas residents and 1,580 Massachusetts residents so far. Tradier has said it is reviewing its third-party relationships and its data minimization program.

What Information Was Exposed

According to Tradier Brokerage, the personal information that may have been accessed includes:

• Full names
• Addresses
• Phone numbers
• Social Security numbers
• Government-issued tax identification numbers

Because Social Security numbers and tax identification numbers are among the most sensitive categories of personal information, the exposure creates a heightened risk of identity theft and financial fraud for affected individuals.

Who May Be Affected

The investigation focuses on Tradier Brokerage customers whose personal information was held in the Etna systems used to operate Tradier's brokerage business. Tradier has arranged with Cyberscout, a TransUnion company, to provide affected individuals up to two years of complimentary credit monitoring and identity theft protection; eligible individuals must enroll within 90 days of receiving their notification letter.

Your Legal Options

Edelson Lechtzin LLP is investigating a potential class action on behalf of individuals whose data may have been compromised. A successful case could recover compensation for losses such as lost time, out-of-pocket costs, and loss of privacy, and could press Tradier Brokerage to strengthen its data protection. The firm evaluates claims at no cost.

Recommended Steps to Protect Yourself

Watch for the notice from Tradier Brokerage and keep the enclosed code for the free credit monitoring being offered, enrolling within 90 days.
