Hardware Giant LaCie Acknowledges Year-Long Credit Card Breach
Summary: Hard drive maker LaCie acknowledged that hackers broke into its online store and exposed customer names, addresses, email addresses, payment card numbers and card expiration dates for transactions made between March 27, 2013 and March 10, 2014. The disclosure came almost a month after KrebsOnSecurity reported the breach, which Seagate initially said showed no indication of compromised customer data, and the attackers used Adobe ColdFusion vulnerabilities and were tied to break-ins at Smuckers, SecurePay, Adobe, LexisNexis, Dun & Bradstreet and Kroll.
Key Takeaway: The breach ran for nearly a year before disclosure, and the same ColdFusion-exploiting group behind it also stole tens of millions of customer records and source code from Adobe - a reminder that a single unpatched e-commerce platform can sit exposed for months while the attackers move on to the next store.
