Bleeping Computer: Instagram ads impersonating financial institutions like Bank of Montreal (BMO) and EQ Bank (Equitable Bank) are being used to target Canadian consumers with phishing scams and investment fraud.
Private Equity Insights: The fund – named Tikehau Défense et Sécurité – marks a first in the French market as a non-listed vehicle eligible for unit-linked life insurance and retirement savings products.
Plan Adviser: The Securities and Exchange Commission has withdrawn 14 proposed rules and amendments issued between March 2022 and November 2023, under former President Joe Biden, continuing the agency’s regulatory shift under leadership appointed by President Donald Trump.
SecurityWeek: The probe, still in its early stages, will assess whether the deal would harm competition in the cybersecurity market. The publication noted that these reviews can stretch for months and may include interviews with customers, rivals, and the merging companies.
Bleeping Computer: Threat intelligence researchers are warning of hackers breaching multiple U.S. companies in the insurance industry using all the tactics observed with Scattered Spider activity.
The Guardian: It is every bank boss’s worst nightmare: a panicked phone call informs them a cyber-attack has crippled the IT system, rapidly unleashing chaos across the entire UK financial industry.
The Target: Sensata is a global industrial tech firm specializing in mission‑critical sensors, controls, and electrical protection systems. It serves the automotive, aerospace, and defense industries, among others, and has an annual revenue of over $4 billion.
The Take: The company is now notifying an undisclosed number of impacted individuals that the following data was stolen: Full name, address, Social Security Number (SSN), driver's license number, state ID card number, passport number, financial account information, payment card information, medical information, health insurance information, date of birth.
The Vector: Subsequent investigations into the incident supported by an external expert showed that the ransomware actors breached Sensata's network on March 28, 2025.
This breach highlights the extreme importance of timely software updates for known software vulnerabilities, not only in systems directly under a firm’s control, but in third-party systems the firm relies upon as well. The longer a firm, or its vendors, hold out on deploying the most up-to-date software for their systems, the greater the chance an attacker will exploit the issue.
CSO Online: Experts quizzed by CSO said that the rapid adoption of emerging technologies — which comes with the downside of fresh vulnerabilities that cybercriminals can exploit — together with a widening skills gap is contributing to a deteriorating security outlook for small and midsize businesses (SMBs).
