In June 2023, a leading brokerage in Toronto, experienced a sophisticated malware attack when an employee unknowingly clicked on a malicious link in a phishing email. The malware quickly spread throughout the network, compromising sensitive client data.
In response, the Intact partner brokerage notified all affected parties, provided credit monitoring services, and strengthened cybersecurity measures. They prioritized employee training, conducted regular audits, and partnered with external cybersecurity firms.
With these preventative measures in place, this broker is more secure than ever today.
