Re: 9 Minutes?
No, I don't think so. I think what the piece is trying to communicate is that once they had already accessed the information, they took mere minutes to use the compromised information. The 9-minute figure has nothing to do with the breach itself.

At the same time, this is may be another vulnerability that was exploited and not shared with the vendor and hackers now know it.

When you want it, you want it.
Makes sense. When you're in the market for something -- whether it's stolen PII or something else -- you often want it right away.

Interesting Honeypot
This is an interesting exercise to show the value of compromising personal records from the attackers perspective.
