Overview
- The FGC disclosed on Thursday that it detected an unauthorized access affecting systems that handle guarantee payments and investor records.
- The entity says the incident was first identified on October 26 and that investigations continue with support from specialised cybersecurity firms.
- Exposed categories include names, CPFs, e‑mails, dates of birth and records tied to guarantee payments such as taxes withheld and distribution channels.
- Since detection the FGC restricted access to the affected environments, blocked illicit accounts, preserved evidence and is reviewing permissions and security controls.
- The FGC has notified affected individuals and the ANPD, warned clients to mistrust requests for passwords or payments, and faces heightened reputational scrutiny because it has been managing large guarantee payouts after recent bank liquidations.
