Normal in corporate environment. You think every day buy new HDD just to write back up 1 time?

at my place, we seldomly encrypt the tape version of backup due to the time taken the backup to be completed...

habis la data dalam tu cimb lol

CIMB says that the tapes does not contain authentication data. If there is breach in those data, the bank could have suspend accounts until the user updates new PIN/password

But how come they said

CIMB has since heightened security measures across all channels, including temporarily suspending some services via it's call centre.

These include change of address, telephone numbers, e-mail addresses for banking and credit cards and third party transfers.

No harm to be cautious on sudden changes on account now.
