You might have already heard about Target being the victim of a major security breach, one that compromised personal information of more than 70 million customers. The retailer was hit during the holiday shopping season, and it discovered that malware was installed on its point of sale registers, which lead to credit and debit card information being compromised as well. Luxury retailer Neiman Marcus also confirmed that it too had been the victim of a security breach. Security researchers claim that a few other major U.S. retailers have been targeted, but they have yet to be named. It seems that things aren’t going to get any easier for U.S. retailers, the FBI was warned them to prepare for more attacks involving the same malware that was used against Target.
