Global Payments Inc. says it self-discovered and reported its breach in mid-March; it involves fewer than 1.5 million accounts. Analyst: “Their breach seems to be very different than the one Visa issued an alert on,” Gartner analyst Avivah Litan says. Visa reported Track 1 and 2 data stolen, while Global Payments reported only Track 2. Global Payments says no merchants were breached and that the unauthorized access was confined to some North American servers. Some card-issuing banks report links to questionable transactions conducted with New York-based taxi and parking services.”]
