"Finjan, a provider of secure web gateway solutions for the enterprise market, has confirmed the findings of an Australian investigation into the sale of stolen credit and debit card information on the Internet. "It seems that Sydney Morning Herald reporters have uncovered the fact that almost anyone on Internet can buy stolen payment card details for as little as US$1.50 a time for Aussie details, and US$2.50 a time for US and English cardholder information," said Yuval Ben-Itzhak, chief technology officer with Finjan."
