http://www.kjonline.com/news/hackers-breach-banks-online-system_2011-03-30.html By Keith Edwards centralmaine.com Staff Writer March 31, 2011 AUGUSTA -- Kennebec Savings Bank's online banking system was infiltrated by an outside party and bank officials are working with a team of computer forensics experts to find out which customers may have been affected and what information may have been accessed. Bank officials said there was no unauthorized access to customer funds, Social Security numbers or debit or credit card information. "It's safe to use now, it was safe to use then," President and CEO Mark Johnston said of the bank's online banking system. "Unfortunately, these things do happen. There are bad guys out there working overtime on how to get money out of people which they have no right to. But no customer accounts were compromised. Not a dime was lost in our customers' accounts, or our accounts." An investigation into which customers may have been affected, and what information may have been accessed, is ongoing.
