Is Your Online Shopping Putting Your Data in Danger?

Online shopping is super convenient compared to going to a physical store, but it does come with risks like the chance of your personal data being stolen. Cybercriminals are exploiting a security flaw found in about 71,000 e-commerce websites, putting customer data, including stored credit card information, at risk. This issue is mainly found in the Magento platform, which runs about a third of all online shops, according to the security firm, Check Point Software Technologies, based in Israel. A spokesperson from the company highlighted that attackers could access all the credit card information stored in these systems.
