The Atlanta-based bank said the employee, who no longer works at SunTrust, attempted to access client information, although it has “not identified significant fraudulent activity” around impacted accounts. SunTrust, which is one of the larger U.S. regional banks, said it became aware in late February of an employee’s possible “inappropriate access” of client information and began an internal investigation.

Massachusetts can move forward with a lawsuit accusing credit reporting firm Equifax Inc of failing to safeguard its databases or provide prompt notice of a breach that exposed the personal data of 147 million people, a state court judge has ruled. Suffolk County Superior Court Judge Kenneth Salinger in Boston, in a decision made public on Wednesday, denied a motion by Equifax to dismiss a lawsuit Massachusetts Attorney General Maura Healey filed after the breach was disclosed in September.
