“About 1.1 million customers were impacted by a breach of luxury retailer Neiman Marcus’ payment systems that lasted more thanthree months, the company said. Malicious software scooped up customer credit and debit card information between July 16 and Oct. 30 of last year, Neiman Marcus Group President and CEO Karen Katz said in a message on the retailer’s website. Visa (V, Fortune 500), MasterCard (MA, Fortune 500) and Discover (DFS, Fortune 500) reported 2,400 cards were then used fraudulently, Katz said. The software — described as ‘sophisticated, self-concealing malware, capable of fraudulently obtaining payment card information’ — has since been disabled.”
