Cost of a breach without WID/WIP
When TJX Companies–the parent company of businesses like T.J. Maxx and Marshalls–was breached in 2007, 45.7 million credit card numbers were stolen. It was later determined that the tremendous loss was due to issues with the security of TJX’s wireless networks, ultimately costing the company billions of dollars and a severe blow to their reputation.
In a wireless world, organizations that process cardholder data must be particularly cautious. Although the invention of wireless networks opens doors for innovation, it also opens wireless access points for hackers, daily. Even the smallest business can be at risk of a data breach if wireless access points are left open and unprotected. Do not let this happen to your business, no matter how big or small. Be smart. Be protected.
