The Home Depot hit by cyber attack

The Home Depot has left a message on it's site to alert customers about the possibility their system may have been hacked. What the company hasn't outright said is that your credit information has been stolen. Many credit cards are already being sold online.

Since this isn't the first store to have been hacked, we should know some of this by now, but it needs repeating. Change your passwords on your accounts. Since this invasion is possibly greater than the Target mess, it would probably be wise to cancel or freeze your card. And, don't forget credit monitoring.

There has been a data data breach at eBay and they are finally alerting it's customers. This cyber attack may be larger than the Target attack. 

Yesterday eBay Inc. announced it is aware of unauthorized access to eBay systems that may have exposed some customer information. There is no evidence financial data was compromised and there is no evidence PayPal or customers have been affected by the unauthorized access to eBay systems.
