Digital Dollar Drama: Data Breach Shakes Dollar Tree, Customers and Lawyers Loom

Dollar Tree’s service provider, Zeroed-In Technologies, is in hot water after a data breach. With employee data floating in the wind and law firms circling, it seems the only thing certain about the Zeroed-In Technologies data breach is uncertainty. Maybe it’s ransomware, maybe it’s info-stealing malware. It’s a whodunit for the digital age!

Hot Take:

It appears Dollar Tree's supply chain just got pruned by a vicious data breach. The culprit? Their service provider, Zeroed-In Technologies. While Dollar Tree scrambles to pick up the fallen leaves of customer and employee data, law firms are sniffing the air for a class-action lawsuit. It's not been confirmed if this was a ransomware hit or info-stealing malware, but either way, it's not a great day to be a tree... or a dollar.
