ZIP Codes Show Extent of Sally Beauty Breach

March 25, 2014

Earlier this month, beauty products chain Sally Beauty acknowledged that a hacker break-in compromised fewer than 25,000 customer credit and debit cards. My previous reporting indicated that the true size of the breach was at least ten times larger. While the number of cards known to be compromised so far pales in comparison to the 40 million cards exposed by the breach at some 1,800 Target locations, new analysis suggests that the Sally Beauty breach may have impacted far more stores –virtually all 2,600+ Sally Beauty locations nationwide.
