PayPal’s TIO Networks Suffered Data Breach Exposing Data on 1.6 Million Customers
PayPal’s TIO Networks suffered a data breach that may have compromised the personally identifiable information (PII) of up to 1.6 million of TIO’s customers, PayPal Holdings announced late last week.
TIO, a payment processing company PayPal acquired in July, had its operations suspended last month after PayPal’s ongoing investigation revealed TIO’s network had been breached.
PayPal stressed TIO’s systems are completely separate from its network, so PayPal’s customer data remains secure.
TIO has begun to notify customers who may be affected by the breach and PayPal is offering free credit monitoring memberships to these individuals.
