Review the article titled “Missed Alarms and 40 Million Stolen Credit Card Numbers: How Target Blew It

Target had already been alerted about the malicious attacks by FireEye but overlooked and hence the attack was staged without any interruptions. After the hackers in Moscow had infiltrated the system, the Target was issued with alerts and hence the Information security team was supposed to act immediately. Actually, hackers had stage points across the US which were meant to cover their tracks before data could be transferred to Moscow and hence there was enough time for Target team to act. This explains why the organization faced litigation for negligence. The attack could have been dealt with before any harm occurred.
