Harwood Feffer LLP Announces Investigation of The Home Depot, Inc.

NEW YORK, Sept. 9, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Harwood Feffer LLP (www.hfesq.com) is investigating potential claims against the board of directors of The Home Depot, Inc. ("Home Depot" or the "Company") (NYSE: HD) concerning a massive breach into customer data.

On September 9, 2014, Home Depot confirmed that point-of-sale payment systems were hacked at approximately 2,200 United States and Canadian stores in a cyber attack that may have started as early as April 2014.  It has been reported that the breach is likely the product of the same malware used in a widely-publicized breach of Target Corp. several months before.

Our investigation concerns, among other things, whether the Home Depot board of directors (the "Board") fulfilled its fiduciary duties in adequately protecting its customers' private financial information from theft. 

If you own Home Depot shares and wish to discuss this matter with us, or have any questions concerning your rights and interests with regard to this matter, please contact:
