Data breaches are incidents we, unfortunately, can't escape. But the Ottawa-based Shopify's data breach occurred within the company. Shopify revealed in a blog post that two "rogue" members of its support team were caught "in a scheme to obtain customer transactional records of certain merchants."
Shopify claims less than 200 merchants were affected, but it isn't known how much data was stolen. The company is quick to say that payment information like credit card and account numbers weren't affected. But customer information and order details of what was purchased were accessed. Shopify didn't name the stores involved, but it has informed the sellers. So, best keep an eye out on your inbox to see if you've been affected by the breach.
