Discount Drama: Dollar Tree Hit by INC Ransomware in Pricey Data Breach!
The notorious INC Ransomware group claims they’ve hacked Dollar Tree, snagging 1.2TB of sensitive data. Apparently, even dollar stores aren’t safe from high-stakes cyber heists! As Dollar Tree grapples with this breach, they’re reminded that sometimes the cost of cybersecurity is more than just a buck and change!
Hot Take:
Looks like Dollar Tree’s slogan should’ve been “Everything’s $1.25 or less, including our data security!” Perhaps they should’ve invested some of those billions into a decent firewall instead of trying to save a buck on cybersecurity. If you thought getting a deal on toothpaste was exciting, wait until you see your passport hanging out on the dark web!
