BitArmor Survey Shows Credit Card Theft a Big Concern for Holiday Shoppers

November 29, 2007

A survey conducted by BitArmor Systems over the "Black Friday" shopping weekend reveals that more than 3 in 4 shoppers are concerned about companies losing their credit card information to hackers and other criminals this holiday season.  In fact, two-thirds of respondants say they will use their cards to pay for less than 25% of their holiday gift purchases.  Almost 80% of those responding said they were likely to stop shopping at a store where retailers are not taking adequate measure to protect their personal data. BitArmor conducted the survey along with the news departments from WHAS-TV (Louisville), WTVF-TV (Nashville), WBMA-TV (Birmingham) and WTAE-TV (Pittsburgh).
