The retail sector is a prime target for cybercriminals due to its vast amounts of personal and financial data. The blend of physical stores and e-commerce increases vulnerability, especially with integrating various technologies and cloud-based services. A recent Trend Micro report highlights 71% of retail IT and business leaders' concerns over expanding digital attack surface. Legal implications are significant as well.
