Australian Information Security Incident Reported: March 14 2017

Hackers have targeted a school photography company, with fraudsters making transactions around the world using the credit card details of Queensland parents.

“Our investigations indicate that no photos have been breached — the incident appears limited to payment card information,” operations manager Thurid Cook said.
