Malware Infected All Eddie Bauer Stores in U.S., Canada

ronjor · Aug 19, 2016

Clothing store chain Eddie Bauer said today it has detected and removed malicious software from point-of-sale systems at all of its 350+ stores in North America, and that credit and debit cards used at those stores during the first six months of 2016 may have been compromised in the breach. The acknowledgement comes nearly six weeks after KrebsOnSecurity first notified the clothier about a possible intrusion at stores nationwide.

Eddie Bauer and Veridian Credit Union have reached a $9.8 million settlement, ending claims that Eddie Bauer’s lack of adequate security led to more than 1 million Veridian customer accounts being exposed to a data breach that occurred in January 2016.
The proposed settlement deal was filed on Friday in Washington federal court, and awaits preliminary approval.

The Eddie Bauer class action settlement was reached followed two years of litigation between the two companies, which reportedly included a day-long, in-person mediation meeting held in February.
The parties say this proposed settlement deal is the best way to give relief to Class Members — those whose personal information was compromised in the data breach.

Eddie Bauer LLC will have to pay up to $2.8 million to settle class claims based on a 2016 data breach that affected all of its American and Canadian stores, according to court filings in the Western District of Washington.
The settlement, which received final approval Oct. 25, will also require the clothing store chain to pay $2 million in attorneys’ fees and spend $5 million on cybersecurity enhancements.

The cyberattack was “the foreseeable result of Eddie Bauer’s minimalistic data security measures—which were known within the company to be insufficient to protect against recognized threats—and refusal to implement industry-standard security measures because they cost too much,” Veridian said.
The case is Veridian Credit Union v. Eddie Bauer LLC, W.D. Wash., No. 2:17-cv-00356, 10/25/19.
