Earlier this month, researchers at cybersecurity firm FireEye discovered a vulnerability in the iOS operating system which could allow hackers to replace legitimate apps with malicious copies, giving them access to any data the user entered into the hacked app. These “Masque Attacks” were enough of a threat to convince the U.S. government to release a statement warning iPhone users to avoid downloading apps from third-party sources until the issue could be resolved.

Hackers are claiming to have broken into the Sony PlayStation Network (PSN), Microsoft Windows Live and 2K Games to leak over 5,500 usernames and passwords.

The Masque bug that affects iOS apps has the potential to steal data from legitimate sources, due to a lack of encryption in apps across the board.

The revelation that Home Depot's breach resulted from the compromise of a third-party vendor is "eerily" similar to the circumstances of the Target data breach, security experts say. The two mega-breaches point to the need for retailers to more closely monitor the security measures of their vendors and ramp up breach detection efforts.

As thousands brave Black Friday lines for door-busting discounts, cyber criminals will be waiting in the shadows to grab the season’s biggest steals.
