Acer, a Taiwanese multinational company informed its customers about a leakage data from its online store.
The company reports that users who had access to the e-commerce site from 12 May 2015, up to 28 April 2016, are at risk because their third-party systems were unauthorized by third parties.
Acer did not say how many users were affected by the hack, but revealed that the data όπως ονόματα, διευθύνσεις, αριθμοί καρτών payments, card expiry date and three-digit security codes (CVVs) may have been intercepted.
Η εταιρεία ανέφερε ότι δεν συλλέγει αριθμούς κοινωνικής ασφάλισης. Μετά από όλα τα παραπάνω όμως τι σημασία έχει...
After an investigation by their staff and a group of external cyber security experts, Acer said it found no evidence that the attacker had access to login credentials for its platform users.
Acer runs an online store on the Magento Enterprise platform, which we have been hearing more and more often about gaps in its security.
As required by US law, the Taiwanese company has begun to inform all US citizens and its customers from other countries that may have been affected by data interception.
