Banco Promerica Cyber Crisis Unveiled

January 12, 2024
Reading Time: 3 mins read
in Incidents

Banco Promerica is confronting a potential cybersecurity crisis as reports of a data breach and cyberattack, initially disclosed by RansomHouse in December, resurfaced on January 11th when the Snatch ransomware group also listed the institution. The Snatch ransomware platform’s messages suggested a potential lapse in the IT department’s judgment as a contributing factor to the security breach, inviting insurance companies to take notice. Concerns escalated when disruptions in digital services since December 10th, 2023, were reported, leading to social media alerts and questions about the safety of customer data by users like Robert Lluberes.

The two ransomware groups involved, RansomHouse and Snatch, have distinct tactics and are known for their unique approaches to cyber threats. RansomHouse deviates from typical ransomware operations by demanding payment for stolen data without encryption, placing the blame on victims’ inadequate security. In contrast, the Snatch ransomware group, active since 2019 and linked to Russian origins, utilizes data exfiltration and double extortion tactics. The potential impact of this cyberattack on Banco Promerica and its customers remains uncertain, with clients anxiously awaiting updates and assurance regarding the security of their data.

The communication from the threat actors, particularly the invitation for insurance companies to inquire about compromised client data, implies a level of audacity and opportunism, potentially exploiting a perceived lapse in the IT department’s judgment. Ransomware groups claiming responsibility for the breach add complexity to the situation, emphasizing the evolving and sophisticated nature of cyber threats faced by financial institutions. The lack of an official response from Banco Promerica heightens concerns, emphasizing the need for prompt action and transparency in addressing potential cybersecurity threats to maintain customer trust and security.

  • Banco Promerica was posted by RansomHouse in December and just listed again today by Snatch Ransomware
