8000 Cetera Financial Advisors and their clients hacked

Gee, why would anyone want to hack wealth managers and their clients. Ooh, wait! Wealthy clients! Can you say gold mine? According to Investment News (read their story here), "…information for about 2,000 clients…" is at risk. And those 2,000 clients are wealth managers for a lot of rich folks. Rich, stupid folks, who didn't check their supplier's supplier email spoofing DMARC enforcement settings. What? Oh yes, there is no DMARC record for Cetera.

Sigh.

Mad Max
