Credit Card Breach at a Zoo Near You

Summary: Service Systems Associates, a Denver-based company that runs gift shops and eateries at zoos and cultural centers, confirmed a breach of its point-of-sale systems after banking sources detected fraud on cards used at its zoo gift shops. SSA said card data may have been compromised for guests who used credit or debit cards at partner facility gift shops between March 23 and June 25, 2015, and that the malware was identified and removed with help from forensics firm Sikich.
