Military hiring a rapid cyber response team in case commissaries get hacked
Military base grocery stores are vulnerable to computer hackers, according to the Pentagon, which says it needs private cyber forensics investigators on call. If a payment system breach were to occur, the team would respond within an hour.
The Defense Commissary Agency, essentially a global quick mart and supermarket chain, is in the process of hiring “computer incident response services” for its 250 shops.
The agency, also called DeCA, is worried about joining the likes of, among other hacked chains, Supervalu, 7-Eleven and Chick-fil-A — whose $5 billion annual sales rival the agency’s.
