Fitness Depot notifies customers of data breach

Fitness Depot notifies customers of data breach

  • The Canadian retailer was informed of the data breach on May 20, and recently sent a breach notification letter to all potentially impacted customers.
  • Fitness Depot blames its internet service provider for the data breach, claiming it “neglected to activate the anti-virus software on our account.”
  • It’s unclear what Fitness Depot is referring to since it’s not typically an ISP’s job to equip its customers’ e-commerce platforms with anti-virus software.
