Revolut Data Breach: 5 Months, 680 High-Profile Accounts, $3M Ransom

Revolut's systems were compromised for approximately five months, during which attackers impersonating an Italian government agency accessed data from 680 high-profile customer accounts. The breach resulted in a $3 million ransom demand.

Why it matters: Customers of Revolut and organizations relying on the fintech platform face identity theft and financial fraud risk; security teams should verify whether their personnel or corporate accounts were among the affected accounts and review account activity for unauthorized transactions.
