Leading U.S. commercial bank Truist confirmed its systems were breached in an October 2023 cyberattack after a threat actor posted some of the company's data for sale on a hacking forum.

While BleepingComputer could not independently verify these claims, the data also allegedly contains bank transactions with names, account numbers, balances, and IVR funds transfer source code.

"We regularly work with law enforcement and outside cybersecurity experts to help protect our systems and data," the Truist Bank spokesperson added.

Sp1d3r also previously put up for sale 3TB of data belonging to automotive aftermarket parts provider Advance Auto Parts on the same hacking forum, stolen after breaching Advance's Snowflake account.
