About Advantive LLC
Advantive LLC is a software company based in Tampa, Florida that develops purpose-built ERP, MES, and SPC software solutions for specialty manufacturing and distribution businesses. The company was formed in 2022 through the merger of six industry brands and has approximately 500 employees across five continents. Because the breach involved names combined with financial account information, affected individuals face meaningful risk of financial fraud and identity theft.
What Happened?
Advantive LLC was listed in a Texas Attorney General data security breach report published on July 3rd, 2026. According to that filing, the breach occurred over a two-day window—April 10th, 2026 through April 11th, 2026—and was not discovered until May 18th, 2026, a gap of approximately 37 days. The incident affected 4,977 individuals in total. The compromised information included names combined with financial information such as account numbers or credit and debit card numbers. Affected consumers were notified by U.S. Mail.
No independent news reporting, ransomware group claims, or litigation related to this specific incident has been identified as of July 3rd, 2026. The Texas Attorney General filing classifies Advantive as a “Business – Retail or Merchant,” though the company primarily operates as a B2B software provider; this may reflect the operations of one of its subsidiary brands.

What Should You Do?
If you received a notification letter from Advantive LLC, review it carefully for details about any identity theft protection services being offered and enroll before any stated deadline. Regardless of whether protection is offered, you should place a fraud alert or credit freeze with the three major credit bureaus—Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion—to help prevent new accounts from being opened in your name. Monitor your existing bank and credit card accounts closely for unauthorized transactions, and pull your free credit reports at AnnualCreditReport.com to check for unfamiliar accounts or inquiries.
