Customer data from companies such as JPMorgan, Citigroup, and Morgan Stanley may have been stolen
According to ChainCatcher, citing The New York Times, companies such as JPMorgan, Citigroup, and Morgan Stanley have received notifications from SitusAMC stating that their client data may have been stolen.
SitusAMC, a technology provider offering real estate loan and mortgage origination and servicing for hundreds of banks and other lending institutions, confirmed on Saturday that it was a victim of a cyberattack. The company confirmed that the leaked data is related to residential mortgage loans. SitusAMC CEO Michael Franco stated that law enforcement has been notified and the company is focusing on analyzing any potentially affected data. FBI Director Kash Patel said they are working closely with affected organizations and partners to understand the extent of the potential impact, but so far there is no evidence of operational impact on banking services. A spokesperson for JPMorgan Chase stated that the bank itself was not directly attacked. SitusAMC holds a large amount of personal data from loan applications, including sensitive information such as Social Security numbers. In addition, since the company provides regulatory compliance and other services, it may also possess sensitive internal information about the banks themselves and the risks associated with their real estate asset holdings.
