I recall that Target's stock price took a severe hit. People stopped trusting Target's brick-and-mortar and online stores and stopped shopping there.

Folks always point to it as a major concern but I've yet to see one organization show anything tangible in regard to damaged reputation.

The interviewees seem to have a viewpoint around what's best for their bottom line and for their shareholders, rather than what may be best for the cardholder. We've never suffered a breach (that we know of) but I can't imagine trying to keep it under wraps in hope that our reputation would not suffer. Interested in others opinions.
