Staples says at least 1.16 million credit and debit cards were impacted after POS malware infected systems at 115 stores nationwide. The company has offered customers who used their cards at the affected stores free identity theft protection services, including credit monitoring, identity theft insurance, and a free credit report. The malware may have allowed access to transaction data at affected stores, including cardholder names, payment card numbers, expiration dates, and card verification codes, Staples said in a statement. Earlier this year, the U.S. Secret Service warned more than 600 businesses about attacks using POS malware.”]
