Clickable Map of Banks Affected by Heartland Payment Systems Data Breach
Disheartening, but fascinating: Check out BankInfoSecurity's clickable map of banks affected by the Heartland Payment Systems data breach.
BankInfoSecurity says that more than 330 institutions have been impacted.
"As first reported on Jan. 20, Heartland, the sixth-largest payments processor in the U.S., revealed that its processing systems were breached in 2008, exposing an undetermined number of consumers to potential fraud.
Since then, a growing number of banking institutions have stepped forward to announce that their customers were among those affected by the breach."
