Initially told their data was safe, both companies are now left cleaning up the mess 🧹.
Oh, and Fidelity Investments is back in the breach club for the second time this year—this time, over 77,000 customers’ info was accessed. Fun, right? 😬
From surprise breaches to data drama, it seems nobody’s dodging the cyber bullets these days. It’s safe to say, the cyber drama is far from over—grab the popcorn! 🍿
