AND THE FOX SAYS: "HUH?"
It has been determined that the POS (Point-of-Sale) computers at Target were infected with Malware, which in turn caused the breach of security that allowed over 70 million people have their credit/debit card information stolen.
Security experts determined that the Malware included "Ram Scrapers". What is a Ram Scraper you ask?
"A RAM scraper is a specific type of malware which targets information stored in memory, as opposed to information saved on the hard drive or being transmitted over the network."
If you own a business with a POS computer (and most do), perhaps you should read an article from PCMAG.com's website. You can find it HERE.
'Nuff Said,
