Kmart Says Card Data Stolen in Latest Retail Cyber Hack

“According to the security experts Kmart has been working with, the Kmart store payment data systems were infected with a form of malware that was undetectable by current anti-virus systems,” the company said. “Kmart was able to quickly remove the malware. However, Kmart believes certain debit and credit card numbers have been compromised.”

Kmart stated that they cant find evidence that personal data was stolen thus far. 

This kind of breach is new accourding to Kmart and the normal malware and anti-systems did not catch the breach.

Hackers are changing in my view and they know and anticipate security moves.

Kinda scary?
