Why you received this letter

Newport Advisory, LLC appears to be a financial services or investment advisory firm, given the nature of its name and typical industry naming conventions. As a firm in this sector, Newport Advisory likely collects and maintains sensitive personal and financial data necessary for client portfolio management, tax reporting, and wealth planning. In 2025, the company officially reported a data security incident to the California Attorney General, confirming that unauthorized parties may have accessed client information. If you received a data breach notification letter from Newport, it indicates that your personal records were included in the scope of this incident. This disclosure is intended to inform you of the event and provide guidance on the steps you should take to protect your identity and financial accounts from potential misuse.

What to do after the letter

  1. Confirm the notice is genuine

    A legitimate Newport Advisory, LLC (“Newport”) notice references the specific incident reported to the California Attorney General and describes which categories of your information were involved. Compare the letter against the public filing before acting on any links or phone numbers it contains.

  2. Keep the letter — it is your proof of connection

    The notification letter is the document that ties your personal information to this incident. Keep the original and photograph it. If you later request a case review, this letter is the strongest evidence that you were among the affected individuals.

  3. Protect your accounts and credit

    Depending on what was exposed, consider a free credit freeze with all three bureaus, new passwords for reused credentials, and monitoring of financial statements. These steps are free and do not require you to wait for anyone's permission.
