P&N Bank is informing customers of a data breach in which personally identifiable information (PII) and sensitive account information was exposed.

On Wednesday, a security researcher going under the Twitter handle @vrNicknack pinged Troy Hunt, the operator of the Have I Been Pwned? search engine, with a notice he had received from the bank.
P&N Bank says that names, addresses, email addresses, phone numbers, customer numbers, ages, account numbers, and account balances may have been compromised. Information "that could be included in our records of interactions" with customers may have also leaked.

"Upon becoming aware of the attack, we immediately shut down the source of the vulnerability," the company added.
P&N Bank is keen to emphasize in the notice that at present there is no evidence of customer accounts or funds being compromised, and is "treating this information breach extremely seriously."
