Kirthi Kalyanam : The Rise of Information Hacking on Online Shopping Sites : ABC7 News
Kirthi Kalyanam, L.J. Skaggs Distinguished Professor and director of the Retail Management Institute at Santa Clara, spoke to ABC7 News about how online shopping sites are seeing hacking increases despite heightened security efforts. Researchers estimate that eight out of ten Americans enter critical personal data into online sites for cyber-criminals to hack.
An excerpt from ABC7 News:
“Professor Kirthi Kalyanam, director of the Retail Management Institute at Santa Clara University, had his own credit card information stolen when Target was hit by hackers.
‘It makes people a lot more cautious about going back to the retailer and giving their credit card because if it happens again, then they have to go through that inconvenience again.’”
