FINTRAC Statement – March 22, 2024

On March 2, 2024, FINTRAC detected that it was the subject of a cyber incident.

Following extensive forensic work by FINTRAC, the Canadian Centre for Cyber Security and other federal departments and agencies, there is no evidence that any information has been removed from FINTRAC's systems or that any information was lost.

As soon as the incident was identified, FINTRAC took its corporate systems offline to ensure their integrity and protect the information that it maintains.

FINTRAC is working closely with its federal partners to return to full operational capacity as soon as it is safe and prudent to do so. Businesses and partners will be provided with more information as it relates to full business resumption.

FINTRAC will provide updates on its website as appropriate.
