(InfoWorld) - AT&T confirmed Tuesday that its online store had been hacked and the credit card information and personal data of up to 19,000 customers possibly compromised. The hacking occurred during the weekend, although AT&T did not say when, resulting in the temporary closure of its online store. The company said it was notifying "fewer than 19,000 customers" about the intrusion, and that it would pay for credit monitoring services to protect both the affected users and further its investigation of the incident. AT&T is still reeling from the investigation of a different kind of privacy infringement -- that of its involvement in assisting the U.S. National Security Agency toÂ monitor the communications of American citizensÂ without a warrant.
