An association of banks and financial technology companies has released a tool that it hopes will help financial institutions securely share data about consumers across the online financial tools that they use. The Financial Services Information Sharing and Analysis Center (FS-ISAC) is releasing an application programming interface (API) in order “to foster universal adoption of a more secure and robust data sharing framework,” according to a statement released on Tuesday. “Over a lifetime, consumer data may be scattered throughout several financial institutions,” the FS-ISAC says, which creates a need for consumers to log into multiple accounts to manage loans, deposits, payments and investments. The new API tokenizes sensitive user information, which the association says facilitates and secures the transfer of data from company to company. “Creating a standard API for secure data sharing benefits everyone in the data aggregation ecosystem,” FS-ISAC Chief Operations Officer Eric Guerrino said in a release.

The U.S. Justice Department charged two men with hacking ATMs inside Connecticut banks in full view of surveillance cameras. The scheme, known as “ATM jackpotting,” ends with ATM machines dispensing large amounts of cash like a casino jackpot. The accused are Alex Alberto Fajin-Diaz, 31, of Spain, and Argenys Rodriguez, 21, of Massachusetts. Facing up to 30 years in prison if convicted, the pair appeared before a federal judge on Monday. Fajin-Diaz and Rodriguez allegedly dressed as repair staff, walked into banks and used malware to get the ATM machines to eject all of their money. The haul was thousands of dollars in cash each time. Police were alerted on Jan. 27, when Citizens Bank investigators observed an attack on an ATM in Cromwell, Connecticut. Police found Fajin-Diaz and Rodriguez near an ATM that was still in the process of ejecting $20 bills. When they searched Fajin-Diaz and Rodriguez’s vehicle, the authorities say they found found “tools […]
