The retail industry has undergone significant transformation in recent years, with new technologies and digital channels changing how consumers shop and interact with brands. However, this transformation has also brought new challenges, particularly in cybersecurity.
In December 2013, retail giant Target experienced a massive data breach that compromised the personal and financial information of approximately 40 million customers. Hackers accessed Target’s network through a third-party HVAC contractor’s compromised credentials. Once inside, the cybercriminals installed malware on Target’s point-of-sale (POS) systems, allowing them to steal customers’ payment card data, including names, card numbers, expiration dates, and CVV codes.
