A contractor for Target said Thursday it was also a victim of a cyberattack, supporting the retailers claim that hackers gained entry to its network via a third party.

.

The contractor, Fazio Mechanical Services of Sharpsburg, Pennsylvania, issued a statement after the business was mentioned in several media reports as the possible weak link that allowed attackers to eventually steal 40 million payment card details.

.

Like Target, we are a victim of a sophisticated cyberattack operation, according to a statement attributed to Fazios president and owner, Ross E. Fazio.

.

The company specializes in designing and installing supermarket refrigeration systems, according to its website. A spokesman said Fazio provided refrigeration services to Target.

.

The company revealed it had a data connection with Target, which was used for submitting electronic bills, contracts and project management material.

.

Target is the only customer for whom we manage these processes on a remote basis, the statement read. No other customers have been affected by the breach. The company said it did not remotely monitor Targets heating, cooling or refrigeration systems.

.

In the statement, Fazio said it could not comment on the technical causes of the breach due to the federal law-enforcement investigation, but said its IT system and security measures are in full compliance with industry practices.
