Hot Take:

Prudential Financial's brush with cyber bandits ALPHV is turning out to be the block party that everyone in the neighborhood got invited to, except the invitations were personal data and nobody wanted to go. With over 2.5 million guests' info swiped, it's less of a 'whoopsie-daisy' and more of a 'holy data breach, Batman!' situation. And as for ALPHV, they've ghosted harder than a Tinder date after a bad first meet-up, leaving Prudential swiping left on security protocols.
