This PSU Bank's X (formerly Twitter) account hacked


On June 22, Canara Bank's official social media profile on platform X was compromised in a recent internet security attack. The hacker alarmed both users and banking authorities by changing the handle's username to "ethèr.fi." The bank has initiated the inquiry.


"Canara Bank wishes to notify everyone involved that there has been compromise of the bank's official X (formerly Twitter) account. In an announcement made public, the bank stated, "All relevant teams are looking into the situation and collaborating closely with X to get back access to Canara Bank X handle as soon as possible.


Users were also advised by the bank not to publish anything on our X page. "We will inform immediately when it is restored and working in Canara Bank controls," the lender stated.


This event happened not too long after Axis Bank was the target of a comparable cyberattack. A few days earlier, unauthorized posts on cryptocurrencies were made on platform X through the hacking of Axis Bank's support handle. Axis Bank has commenced an inquiry to determine the scope of the security compromise and minimize any possible hazards to its clientele and business activities.
