The French hardware company confirmed in a statement on Tuesday that malware successfully made its way through to access sensitive customer information stemming from transactions on its website.
Here's where things get really bad: Virtually everyone who shopped on LaCie's website in the last year is at risk.
LaCie, which is set to merge with American hard drive maker Seagate, said it was informed about the breach on March 19, 2014 by the FBI.

Brian Krebs, the former Washington Post reporter who first broke the Target security breach story last winter, reiterated on his security blog on Tuesday that he previously published evidence about the LaCie attack last month.
