Big news—old and mostly unremarkable news, some argue—of a major cyber attack on banks led headlines in financial technology this week.

Also, the extended deadline for entering into this year's Sell-Side Technology Awards is February 20 at 6 p.m, so be sure to get them in. The second-annual gathering will hand out hardware for 28 different categories. Click here for more information.
