Massive Data Breach at Fidelity National: 1.3 Million Customers’ Data Swiped by Cybercrooks

In a plot twist worthy of a cyber-thriller, Fidelity National Financial’s 1.3 million customers faced a data heist after hackers gatecrashed their systems. The mortgage maestro’s been slapped with lawsuits, but with a billion-dollar buffer, they’re playing it cooler than a cat burglar in a tuxedo. #DataBreachDrama

Hot Take:

Another day, another data heist. Fidelity National Financial, the mortgage behemoth, seems to have played a not-so-fun game of 'Capture the Data' with the ransomware gang ALPHV/BlackCat. With 1.3 million customers now in the 'how's my credit score' anxiety club, FNF is doling out credit monitoring party favors like they're going out of style. And lawsuits? Just a side dish in the grand buffet of cyber-woes. Material impact? They say 'nah,' but wallets everywhere are feeling a little lighter just thinking about it.
