When the intrusion reportedly occurred, per the linked filings
First Republic Bank disclosed that on August 2, 2012, certain client data including names, account types/numbers, and SSNs/Taxpayer IDs were discarded in a manner not adhering to strict data disposal requirements. The bank enhanced data protection controls and placed internal alerts on affected accounts for monitoring. No indication of compromise was found.
About this clustering
DisclosureLens links filings into incidents through layered matchers: deterministic rules (same source document, multistate filings of one breach, tight-window same-victim pairs), a weighted-similarity scorer for cross-source candidates, and an operator review queue for everything uncertain. Each link records its own method and confidence — shown per filing in the timeline below. The system defaults to NOT merging when uncertain, because a false merge (collapsing two unrelated breaches) is more harmful than a false split (showing related filings separately); uncertain pairs route to human review instead of auto-merging. Filing summaries shown in the timeline are AI-generated extracts — verify each against its linked source.
