New Hampshire's Bison State Bank Reports Data Incident

Bison State Bank, a financial institution serving New Hampshire, has reported a data security incident involving unauthorized access to its internal systems. This event suggests that personal information held by the bank may have been compromised.

On February 9, 2026, the bank officially notified the New Hampshire Attorney General, confirming that an unauthorized party gained access to their IT environment. The specifics of how this breach occurred and the full timeline of the unauthorized access are currently under investigation.

If you have received a formal data breach notification letter from Bison State Bank, it indicates that your personal information was among the data potentially exposed. While the precise types of information involved are still being determined, any unauthorized access to such data creates a risk of identity theft and financial fraud.

Our team advises immediate vigilance. Begin by carefully reviewing the notification letter for any offers of identity protection or credit monitoring services and enroll in them without delay. Continuously monitor your financial accounts and credit reports for any suspicious transactions or inquiries that you do not recognize.

To further safeguard your identity, consider placing a fraud alert or a security freeze on your credit files with the three major credit bureaus. This proactive step can prevent new accounts from being opened in your name without your explicit approval.
