Sensitive AML/KYC Database of 6 Million Allegedly Exposed in Acuris Risk Intelligence Breach

Threat actors have allegedly breached and leaked a database belonging to Acuris Risk Intelligence. Based in the United States, Acuris is a significant provider of Anti-Money Laundering (AML) and Know Your Customer (KYC) data, which financial institutions worldwide use to screen clients for potential links to financial crime and other high-risk activities. The threat actors claim the compromised database contains more than 6 million rows of detailed information on both individuals and businesses.

According to the announcement, the data was not exfiltrated directly from Acuris but allegedly from one of its partners operating in Turkey, a finance firm named bt[.]guru. The compromised dataset is described as containing highly sensitive screening information on individuals being monitored for a wide range of illicit activities. A proof-of-concept file was shared to substantiate the claims, revealing the types of data allegedly included in the breach.

The leaked data allegedly contains the following types of information:

  • Personal Identifiable Information (Full names, gender, dates of birth)
  • Residential addresses and nationality details
  • Politically Exposed Person (PEP) status and history
  • Links to regulatory and law enforcement actions
  • Insolvency records
  • Sanctions screening information
  • Details related to monitoring for terrorism, money laundering, and trafficking
