More →South Korea's Financial Services Commission plans to strengthen cybersecurity reviews of financial institutions, with 130 institutions found to have security deficiencies.
According to Cointelegraph, South Korea's Financial Services Commission (FSC) plans to strengthen cybersecurity reviews of financial institutions after finding security flaws at 130 institutions. An industry review showed that 130 of 555 financial companies had cybersecurity issues, involving 16 previous security incidents. The affected institutions exposed a cumulative total of approximately 100,000 pieces of customer information, including names, contact details, and ID numbers. The affected institutions include Streami, the operator of Gopax, and the cryptocurrency trading platform Prabang, which previously disclosed that it suffered a hack on October 2, resulting in the leak of some customers' personal information. Under the proposed reforms, large financial institutions would undergo vulnerability assessments at least twice a year, and regulators also plan to strengthen information sharing and consider using AI to monitor the security status of smaller companies. In the event of urgent threats, regulators may also carry out additional inspections beyond routine assessments. It is still being investigated whether the related incidents involved AI or were carried out by the same attacker.

Mansour mentioned that the transparency of the Kalshi platform helps identify potential improper trading, and cited the case of former U.S. Representative George Santos. Santos's trading activity on Kalshi attracted the attention of regulators, ultimately leading to him being fined for manipulating trades.

Bitcoin News: EU leaders seek to curb soaring energy prices, but the Iran war leaves few policy options. EU leaders are looking for ways to ease soaring energy prices, but the US-Iran war has left them with few policy choices.

A senior EU official said the European Commission, the EU's executive body, is expected to tell member state leaders that there is no immediate solution to high energy prices.
