Developers + GDPR/PCI question
Does anyone know if PCI or GDPR policy restrict the app developers having access to customers data? (e.g. some basic, some sensitive such as last 4 digits of card number).Ive been told yes but I don't believe thats reasonable. Fixing certain bugs seems impossible without setting the state of the data.

I've searched the news and haven't found any mention of this, so I came to Reddit
My role: Like most of you I don't have any official spokesperson role for my company so I'm going to keep their name out of this. I have a small role in security validation. I write software tools that decompile and deconstruct thousands of other tools and libraries in order to manually ensure compliance (proper compiler flags, which libraries are included, that certain libraries never get included, etc...)Recently (since the start of the new year) I am aware of multiple governments getting detailed tours of our validation process. This has resulted in us getting a great deal more enforcement power to push developers and product managers to actually act on our alerts and warnings.Any given tool usually has between 10 and 15 minor to moderate CVEs associated with any given release, but getting anyone responsible to take these vulnerabilities seriously (act on anything) has always been a bit challenging. This seems to be getting pressure from the top (outside pressure) to change.My question is: are any of you aware of what is driving this?Sure, I can speculate as well as anyone else, but hard facts are a bit harder to come by. This seems to be pretty big, but I haven't seen any coverage on it.Rumors include pseudo-official word of large incentives, world funding shifts, additional contracts (or contracts being threatened by) proper enforcement, etc...

Unknown log in attempts on Tillys.com — should I be concerned?
Today, I got this email from customerservice@tillys.com.Hi [my name], Your account has been temporarily locked because the maximum number of invalid logins has been exceeded.Please try logging in again later.If you feel you have received this email in error, please contact customer service.This is an automatically generated email, please do not reply.I was quite scared by this, because I've never had such emails sent to me before. So I wanted to see if anyone else had this issue; if Tilly's were recently compromised or something.So I looked up the email content with quotation mark on Google, and I got a very fishy result. Only website I could find with this exact text is from the website of a New Zealand clothing brand, icebreaker. This seemed strange, but I assumed that maybe they used a same template or something for their security system so it's plausible they have the same message. (I have no idea how programming works. Is this a plausible idea?)Then, I sent a email to tillys support that I have been alarmed about unknown log in attempts to my account, so I would like to know location of where the log in attempts came from and what the attempts were. After the support mail was sent, I went to log in to my account, which I honestly don't even remember making, to be honest. I searched Tillys.com on my gmail search engine, but there weren't any of those "Thanks for joining Tillys.com!" type of mail in the past.So in case that my computer is exposed to a keylogger, I pressed forgot password to reset the password, without making any real attempts to log in, and changed my Tillys.com password to something completely unusual; a combination of words and numbers that I never used as a password before. When I logged in, I found more weird things.I was signed up for email updates, despite the fact that as I mentioned, I have not received any emails from Tilly's before. I looked for it on every inbox. Nothing is there.It is signed up with my real name and my birthdate, but the gender is wrong and the shipping address is a non-exsistent address. (Random numbers and null city, etc.)I ran a Windows Defender test and found a Trojan virus, and deleted it immediately. I pirate through torrent time to time, but very rarely and my last download has been quite a while ago.This is some weird fishy shit. I'm scared that this is all a set-up by a hacker to access my account. I will wait for their techsupport team to reply, but I would like to know if any of this is significant; something to worry about. Thank you guys in advance.
