Description
The 2016 bank hack remains one of the most audacious cyber heists ever attempted. See how attackers bypassed security to transfer millions.
Criminals targeted a major financial institution with the goal of stealing $1 billion. While they ultimately fell short of that massive target, their breach resulted in a successful $80 million theft. This breakdown explains the technical steps taken during the security breach and how the stolen funds were laundered through international entities.
We track the movement of the stolen capital into accounts across the Philippines and Sri Lanka, analyzing the digital footprint left behind by the perpetrators. Understanding these cyber crime tactics is essential for learning how organizations defend against such massive financial fraud.
