It seems TJX isn’t the only place experiencing breaches in their computer security. Indiana residents now need to be concerned about having their information fall into the wrong hands. Today, the Secret Service issued an alert to Indiana residents stating that a security breach occurred to the state website that compromised the credit card numbers of approximately… 5,600 residents of the state.
But, unlike TJX, the state actually had a contingency plan in place in the event of such an occurrence. The state claims that the problem has already been fixed and that consumers can feel safe using the site once again. In addition, the state wasted no time notifying customers, unlike TJX, which waited several weeks before announcing the breach.
If you happen to be someone that used the state website recently or that received a letter from the Secret Service, you are encouraged to call to learn more.
