Krebs OnSecurity on CBS’s ’60 Minutes’
Summary: KrebsOnSecurity and its author Brian Krebs were featured in a 60 Minutes segment hosted by CBS's Bill Whitaker on the credit and debit card breaches that hit retailers and consumers over the past year. Krebs says he spent more than a dozen hours with the show's producers and crews, much of the segment was shot in a nearby hotel and the rest in his living room.
What you should know: The comment thread shows readers pressing on the unresolved mechanics of card fraud - chip cards still carrying magnetic stripes, merchants deploying chip readers that clerks say are not programmed, and a payment processor industry one reader says profits from the fraud - the same questions Krebs says the broadcast left for future posts.
