South Korean government officials identified 19 IP addresses involved in AI-driven attacks targeting 7 financial firms over the past week, exploiting secondary access points to steal private information from credit institutions. A breach of a loan broker portal exposed details for 25,000 Shinhan Bank customers, with additional leaks reported at KB Kookmin and Hana Bank. No money has been reported stolen, though police are conducting a full investigation and the government has established a 24 hour emergency response.
