Retailer Vera Bradley warns customers of a compromise of its point-of-sale system that allowed hackers to make off with an undisclosed number of credit card records. The breach impacts only retail customers who shopped at one of 159 Vera Bradley locations between July 25 and Sept. 23. Vera Bradley joins a number of retailers also hit by cyber criminals targeting PoS systems this past year. In August, Eddie Bauer confirmed a breach of its payment card system in the US and Canada. In March, Wendy s disclosed it was a victim of a point of sale attack that installed malware on PoS computers affecting 300 franchise restaurants.
