- —Daishin Securities reported a leak of personal data on 38,490 customers
- —Bithumb confirmed employee data exposure and is checking for customer records
- —Mirae Asset says only internal work systems were affected, no client losses found
- —Police do not rule out the same group behind the 16 bank breaches
