SEC probes data breach

MANILA, Philippines — The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is conducting an investigation and system-wide audit of its digital platforms following a data security incident detected on November 6, 2026.

It assured the public that no company records were affected.

In a statement late Monday, the SEC said initial findings showed that no passwords were leaked and no data had been modified or altered. It said its internal database infrastructure and system integrity remain intact.

However, the commission acknowledged that individual profile information may have been exposed, although it is still verifying the origin, scope and validity of the potentially affected records.
