The Home Depot acknowledged today that its payment system suffered a security breach that has apparently exposed credit card data since April, though the retailer noted that personal identification numbers (PINs) were not stolen.

Home Depot first hinted that security trouble may be afoot last Tuesday when it announced an investigation that involved law enforcement, banks and security specialists.
