SEC staff forced to tell chairman about hack when stolen data used by inside trader – MarketWatch

By Securities Docket on September 26, 2017, 7:41 am

Securities and Exchange Commission lawyers reluctantly realized while investigating an insider-trading case in August that it was time to tell new chairman Jay Clayton about a major breach of the agency’s systems that happened in 2016. Why now? Because despite immediately patching the hole that hackers went through, their case was based on the non-public information stolen from the SEC’s own systems.
