Terget CEO, President, and Chairman Gregg Steinhafel has reportedly resigned in the wake of a hack last December that affected nearly 110 million customers.
According to CNET, Target faced a massive data violation last year that left the personal data, such as names, addresses and credit card information of its customers open to hackers. Nearly 110 million customers were affected.
