Event description
First Partner Bank is no longer the top choice for marketplace operations. The potential customers are reluctant to open trading accounts with the bank, and partner trust has been shattered. The infrastructure provided by the bank for online trading turned out to be very friendly and transparent (just as advertised)— for cybercriminals as well as clients. Hackers managed to break into the hosting control panel, causing damage to both the bank and the online shops. Some of these shops have been made to sell illegal goods, while in others, the hackers announced "Everything Must Go" sales. Meanwhile, the clients of First Partner Bank are facing massive losses. No one knows when the service will be put back online and, more importantly, whether anyone will want to use it again.
