Evolve Bank confirms data breach after brazen LockBit claims

Evolve Bank & Trust confirmed a breach in which threat actors — reportedly affiliated with the LockBit ransomware group — released illegally obtained customer PII (names, Social Security numbers, dates of birth, account information) on the dark web. The bank says the incident is contained, debit cards and online banking credentials do not appear affected, victims will be offered credit monitoring or new account numbers, and law enforcement is involved; no technical indicators or scope metrics were provided.
