A US banking regulator fears sensitive financial oversight data was stolen from its IT systems in what’s been described as “a major information security incident.”
The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC), the Treasury Department bureau that oversees US and foreign banks, said one of its administrative email accounts - with access to user inboxes and internal systems - was compromised, leading to the theft of data, potentially.
The security breach came to light on February 11, when Microsoft tipped off the OCC about suspicious activity within its email accounts. The agency confirmed the next day someone had gained unauthorized access. A public notice followed weeks later, and only now is the scale of the intrusion beginning to surface.
According to the bureau, snoops accessed “highly sensitive information relating to the financial condition of federally regulated financial institutions used in its examinations and supervisory oversight processes.”
I spend 10 seconds trying to figure out who the OCC mother was.
Maybe I’m just tired at the end of a long day, but I’m also completely unable to parse that headline. Somebody’s mum is fingering what now?
No, the treasury fingered China. I knew a girl named China once and that tracks. Still not sure how mum was involved though.
At this point, money isnt even real. I have been involved in soooo many data breaches at this point, from medical and financial institutions, that i dont see how they could even hold me accountable for any new debts since my identity is now basically less meaningful than dog shit and anyone could probably open new accounts with my data at any moment.
Check Elon’s basement
Nobody in his right mind would follow Elon to his basement. I’d rather follow a clown into a sewer.
Attack began in May of 2023. That ain’t Musk.
Elon can do whatever he wants and China gets the blame. When with the enashittification of cyber intelligence, were supposed to believe that they know?
Attack has been ongoing since May of 2023. That ain’t Musk.
