Poll Shows Broad Impact of Cyberattacks

Just fewer than half of Americans say that a retailer, bank or credit-card company has told them or a household member that their payment card details were stolen in a data breach, according to a Wall Street Journal/NBC News poll. That figure has contributed to what many retail analysts are calling “breach fatigue,” in which consumers stop worrying about cyberattacks because they appear in the news so frequently. The poll also found that more Americans than ever think they have been targeted in Internet crime.
