Does a financial institution have to file a SAR if an instance of computer intrusion only affects the institutions email system?
(A) No. Since the email system is not linked to financial institution information, customer financial information or other critical information, it will not be necessary to file a SAR. However, the NIPC squad of your local FBI office should be contacted or you may contact the IFCC, at (304) 363-4312 or www.ifccfbi.gov.
