First it was Target, now it's Neiman Marcus, and studies show that there are 6 more unnamed retail stores that have been hacked. Researchers have traced this hacking spree back to an anonymous teenager in Russia who's roughly around our age. Stores all around the world have been completely upgrading an increasing their amount of internet security, but will that security take away all of our doubt?
Response; This is pretty crazy. First 40 million Americans at Target, and now this persons his Neiman Marcius? That's pretty scary seeing as how you could probably drain enough money from those customers to buy a continent. But honestly, this 17 year old has the date of millions of people in his possession. The way he did these hacking street was very well planned, out. I don't mean to give the guy credit, but there are two very distinct characteristics about the two stores that have been hacked; population and economic status. However, the security jump between the two stores is groundbreaking, which leads us to believe one thing. The hackers getting better. If I've taken anything away from this event, it's that "Cash is king"
