TJX, the corporate office of TJ Maxx, Homegoods, and Marshalls retail stores recently found out that their computer systems, holding customer information such as credit card numbers and drivers license numbers has been hacked into since July 2005, and used all over the world. They have discovered that the hackers have been using these credit card numbers to make fraud purchases, and people have been discovering that they are being charged for things they are not purchasing. This is bad news for TJX, as this makes them look irresponsible and uncaring. The company's economical value has not declined yet, which company executives were excited to announce. They better update their security devices within their computer systems. How does something like this go unnoticed for such a large amount of time? I feel it should have been detected earlier, which makes me question their system.
