Home Depot admits hack attack dates back to April
http://www.bbc.com/news/technology-29125204US DIY store Home Depot has confirmed its payment systems have been hacked in what could turn out to be one of the biggest data breaches ever.

Home Depot has 2,200 stores in the US and Canada.

The company has not revealed how many people were affected, but said the hack of its systems dated back to April.

Security blogger Brian Krebs was the first to reveal the hack, which he said targeted credit and debit cards used on malware-infected cash registers.

In a press release, the firm apologised "for the frustration and anxiety this causes our customers".

"I want to thank them for their patience and support as we work through this issue," said chairman Frank Blake.
Personal information

Mr Krebs said a number of banks had told him about a steep increase in fraudulent ATM withdrawals on customers accounts since the hack was made public.

"Experts say the thieves who are perpetrating the debit card fraud are capitalising on a glut of card information stolen from Home Depot customers and being sold in cybercrime shops online," he wrote.

Card data from Home Depot customers is available for sale on underground crime shops such as Rescator.cc and includes both the information needed to counterfeit cards and the cardholder's full name and city, state and postcode of the store it was stolen from.・・・
