Sources Say Fidelity and JP Morgan Hack Appear Linked
Excerpt from first story: A Fidelity spokesman said the company “continues to deploy multiple layers of security to help protect the privacy of our customers. Through our continued cooperation with law-enforcement officials, we can reiterate and have confirmed with the FBI that there is no indication Fidelity customer accounts, information, services or systems were affected by the recent attack that impacted [J.P. Morgan].” IMarketreports: http://imarketreports.com/sources-say-fidelity-and-jpm-hack-appear-linked.html
My guess? Damn Russians ... (However, the mafia over there packages your data and sells it to lower tier criminals on the open market - so keep your guard up.)
These attacks were also on E-Trade and a number of financial companies and a paycheck company. My mind is blank again but it was the big one that does pay checks.
Apparently these Russians decided to go all in instead of one company only.
Sorry for the long link. This story names more institutions including Citibank and Automatic Data Processing. (ADP). It seems this story has been laid to the side by the media.
