Hackers Go 'Phishing' In The Wake Of Target Data Breach
Hackers Go 'Phishing' In The Wake Of Target Data Breach The retailing giant Target is doing what it can to limit the damage from a massive data breach. YUKI NOGUCHI, BYLINE: Last week, Target CEO Gregg Steinhafel sent an email to more than 70 million people who had either their credit card or personal information stolen from Target's databases over the holiday season. NOGUCHI: A security company called IntelCrawler says it believes it has traced the origin of the malware to a couple of young Russians who put it up for sale in online market places. Now, based on the latest phishing attacks he's seeing, Clements says attackers are setting their sights on a new and very specific target: Executives at banks.
