House Committee to Probe e-Banking Heists
The House Financial Services Committee is slated to hold a hearing this Friday on the impact of cyber heists against small- to mid-sized businesses. It’s too bad the committee has already finalized its witness list: It likely would be shocked to hear the story of Tennessee Electric Company Inc., a firm that lost $328,000 earlier this month in an account takeover that defeated multiple security measures commonly used by commercial banks to stop cyber thieves.
