While we were all talking about EasyJet, Magecart malware claims another victim

On the same day that EasyJet told the markets that 9 million customer email address and travel details had been exposed, Magecart malware has been sipping card details and evaded security scans on UK e-tailer Páramo for almost 8 months.

The Register reports that Paramo informed customers last week that a “small piece of computer code covertly installed within our website”.

“This code copied card details entered, destined for PayPal and additionally sent them on to the attacker’s server. The data transferred was name, address, card number and CVV code.”

Falanx Group Ltd (LON:FLX), through its subsidiaries, provides cyber defence and intelligence services to blue chip and government clients worldwide. It operates through Falanx Cyber Defence and Falanx Intelligence divisions.
