Another reason I don't deal with large banks, besides their shitty service. Too big of a target for hackers.

frick Chase, B of A and all those crooks.

From you link:

The lack of any apparent profit motive has generated speculation among law enforcement officials and security experts that the hackers were sponsored by foreign governments either in Russia or in southern Europe.
I knew it! Those damn Italians!!!

So how are 76 million accounts compromised yet:

I'm assuming that the "state sponsored" angle of the attack just means the attackers weren't interested in the accounts.

So does this mean it's time to switch banks, or can we assume that after this breach Chase will actually have better security in place than the banks that haven't been hit and forced to improve their security yet?

As the severity of the hack became more clear in recent days and new information was unearthed, some top executives flew back to New York from Naples, Fla., where many had convened for a leadership conference, according to several people briefed on the matter.


Poor bankers had to leave their posh "leadership conference." What a shame.

And unlike those retailers, JPMorgan has far more sensitive financial information about customers. Investigators in law enforcement remain puzzled by the attack on the bank because there is no evidence that the attackers looted any customer money from accounts.


Yet...

Because it's nothing more than damage control to calm the masses and mitigate any further loss of account holders.
