“A revelation by Target showed its holiday data breach spanned far wider than originally expected, raising new questions about exactly how such an expansive hack took place.
The retailer said Friday that its investigation had uncovered an additional 70 million customers may have had their names, mailing addresses, phone numbers, and email addresses stolen. Previously, Target said the breach occurred on the terminals where customers swiped credit and debit cards, compromising certain financial information of 40 million shoppers between Nov. 27 and Dec. 15, 2013.”
