The SP1D3R cybercriminal gang continues to make headlines, this time by selling sensitive data of thousands of Truist Bank employees.<\/p>\n\n

Truist Bank is a large American commercial bank formed in late 2019 through the merger of SunTrust Banks and BB&T, and manages $535 billion in assets under management (AUM). The bank offers a wide range of banking services, from consumer and small business banking, to commercial, corporate, and investment banking, as well as insurance, wealth management, and payment services.<\/p>\n\n

SP1D3R claims to have stolen information on 65,000 employees, including bank transaction data with names, account numbers, balances, and the source code for IVR fund transfers. The asking price is $1 million.<\/p>\n\n

No Connection to Snowflake<\/h2>\n\n

The breach apparently occurred in October 2023, but Truist only confirmed it now, after the data went up for sale.<\/p>\n\n

"In October 2023, we experienced a cybersecurity incident that was quickly contained," a Truist Bank spokesperson told BleepingComputer. "Working with external security consultants, we conducted a thorough investigation, took additional measures to protect our systems, and notified a small number of customers last fall."<\/p>\n\n

For those unfamiliar with the name Sp1d3r, it's a threat actor that recently sold sensitive data on 358,000 employees of the major American automotive company Advance Auto Parts, as well as 380 million customer profiles and a wealth of other information. The asking price was $1.5 million.<\/p>\n\n

SP1D3R was also seen selling 34 million emails and other personally identifiable information (PII) belonging to customers, employees, and partners of cybersecurity giant Cylance for $750,000.<\/p>\n\n

Since SP1D3R's breach of Advance Auto Parts occurred through data storage provider Snowflake, media outlets speculated that the same could have happened here. However, a Truist spokesperson confirmed that this had nothing to do with Snowflake.<\/p>\n\n

\u201cTo be clear, we have found no evidence of a Snowflake-related incident at our company.\u201d<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
