The LockBit ransomware group claimed to have breached the U.S. Federal Reserve and exfiltrated 33 terabytes of sensitive data, including Americans' banking secrets. They demanded a ransom with a deadline of June 25, 2024, threatening to release the data if their demands were not met. The Federal Reserve's website was reportedly down, and a $50,000 ransom offer was laughed at by the hackers, who set a 48-hour deadline. However, it was later revealed that the data actually belonged to Evolve Bank & Trust, a financial institution popular with fintech startups. Despite initial skepticism and no sample data provided, Evolve Bank confirmed the cyber attack and data breach, which included account numbers, deposit balances, business owner names, and emails. The breach has raised concerns about the security of financial institutions and their partners.
This is one to watch, the Evolve Bank data breach looks like it’s going to have a long tail of impacted partners https://t.co/IupJ2w3GQd
