An unauthorized third party accessed and obtained information from Fidelity's computer network between August 17 and August 19, 2024, using two recently established customer accounts to submit fraudulent requests to an internal database that housed document images. Massachusetts regulators later fined Fidelity Brokerage Services LLC $1.25 million over cybersecurity-control and notification failures tied to the breach.
