McDonald's, the world's largest burger chain, said on Friday that a data breach in South Korea and Taiwan has exposed some customer and employee information, making it the latest global company to be targeted by cybercriminals.
The details of the breach in the two regions were the outcome of an investigation by external consultants following an unauthorized activity on the company's network. "While we were able to close off access quickly after identification, our investigation has determined that a small number of files were accessed, some of which contained personal data," McDonald's said in a statement.
ALERT 🚨 McDonald's hacker identified could end up being the most expensive ransom paid by a company hit by a data breach.
