Security Breach Exposes 40M Credit Cards
The Good Reverend writes "MasterCard International announced today that a security breach at CardSystems Solutions, a third party processor of payment card data, potentially exposed more than 40 million cards. Mastercard is aware of the specific card numbers affected, and is giving its member financial institutions the numbers that may have been compromised. Unlike many of the past high profile cases this one involves a hacker rather than lost packages. CNN Money, the New York Times, Reuters, MSNBC, ZDNet, C|Net, and the Washington Post are also covering the story."
On a side note, I'm starting to get the feeling that the story mods reject almost any submitted story by default, then the other mods look at the story, re-word it, then post the story to front page news claiming an article for them.
Spence nice way to make front page.
We are both much closer to this than you think, go back 4 years...
