    TJX payment-data breach

    Unauthorized access to TJX computer systems exposed payment-card and other customer transaction information. The intrusion was linked to a non-secure wireless network at one store, and later reports put the number of affected customers at approximately 45.7 million. The incident generated investigations, criminal charges, litigation, security upgrades, and policy debate concerning retailer data protection.
