FCA contacts Capita’s clients over cyber attack
The UK financial regulator has contacted clients of Capita, the outsourcer which suffered a cyber attack in March, urging companies including insurers and pension funds to determine customer data losses from the data breach.
The involvement of the Financial Conduct Authority comes amid growing concerns over what the hackers may have accessed. Over the weekend, The Pensions Regulator confirmed it had written to the hundreds of pension funds that employ Capita to help administer their payment systems, urging them to “determine whether there is a risk to their scheme’s data”.
