More Customers Exposed as Big Data Breach Grows

This is an article about a breach in security with online marketer Epsilon that occurred last week. The fear is that this could be the most extensive breach in Internet security in U.S. history, and although it did not expose personal financial information or social security card numbers, it did include names and e-mail addresses of information from many well know credit card companies. I am currently taking a criminal justice class and this is a topic that we have discussed in that class as well, so that is probably why it caught my attention. Although Law enforcement agencies are investigating the breach, it is not clear at this time how many customers have been exposed.
