"ABN Amro Client Data Possibly Stolen in AddComm Ransomware Attack"

Dutch bank ABN Amro recently announced that client data may have been compromised in a ransomware attack at third-party services provider AddComm.  ABN Amro noted that AddComm distributes physical and digital documents and tokens to its clients and employees.  For the time being, ABN Amro has stopped using AddComm’s services.  ABN Amro said that its systems were not affected by the ransomware attack and that its clients should not worry about their money being at risk.  According to the bank, it is unclear whether personal information was stolen in the attack, and there is no indication that the threat actor behind the attack has used the stolen information maliciously yet.  ABN Amro has reported the data breach to the Dutch Data Protection Authority and regulators.  The investigation into the incident is still ongoing, and more details will be made available when they are discovered.
