More Retailers Hit by New Third-Party Breach?

CVS, Rite-Aid, Sam's Club, Walmart Canada and other large retail chains have suspended their online photo services following a suspected hack attack against a third-party service provider that may, in some cases, have resulted in the compromise of payment card data.

The suspected breach centers on PNI Digital Media Inc., a Vancouver-based firm that manages and hosts online photo services for numerous retailers. The incident serves as a reminder of the security challenges that organizations face when it comes to managing their third-party vendors and entrusting them with sensitive customer information.
