Target announced earlier that its massive data breach was the result of hackers stealing electronic credentials from one of its vendors. The Target breach compromised as many as 40 million payment card accounts, along with the personal information of about 70 million customers. The company says it is cooperating with the Secret Service and Target to identify the possible cause of the breach and to create proactive initiatives that will further enhance the security of client/vendor connections, making them less vulnerable to future breaches.”]
