Australian securities regulator discloses security breach

Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC) has revealed that one of its servers has been accessed by an unknown threat actor following a security breach. The incident took place on January 15th, 2021, and is related to Accellion software the commission uses to transfer information. ASIC has disabled access to the impacted server and is working on providing an alternative credit application submission channel. The commission said that no other systems besides the affected server have been reached or impacted in the incident. The New Zealand Reserve Bank also disclosed earlier this month that they suffered a data breach after an attacker compromised a file sharing service.
