The importance of reducing our use of traditional banking or better yet, disengaging from it.
Today Interbank Peru was hacked, where data from 3 million users was leaked.
The hack was most evident when the applications stopped working, It was not possible to make key changes or transfers.
Interbank's response to this situation:
To our clients: We apologize for any inconvenience caused. Some of our channels are not available at this time. We are working to resolve this as soon as possible so that you can continue to operate normally. We appreciate your understanding.
After hours of uncertainty and when they could no longer hide what was happening, they gave an insignificant message:
To our clients: We regret this situation and understand the inconvenience this may cause you. We have identified that some data belonging to a group of clients has been exposed by a third party without our authorization. In response to this situation, we immediately implemented additional security measures to protect our clients' operations and information. We want to give you the peace of mind that Interbank guarantees the security of your deposits and all your financial products. Most of our channels are operational. Once we complete the thorough review, we will restore operation to the rest of our channels.
ā€¢ Interbank's solution in the two weeks of suffering extortion by an American hacker was to place a job advertisement on Google requesting a bachelor's degree in systems engineering with 6 years of experience, incredible.
Hackers are sending mass mail to interbank users
The hacker continues to publish the emails he sent to Interbank executives

Looks like a top 5 bank in the country. My condolences to all affected. Hopefully they don't lose funds, get some free credit monitoring, and search for alternatives to tradfi.
