- Monday | 14th June, 2021
(Reuters) – McDonald’s Corp, 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 attackers accessed e-mails, phone numbers and delivery addresses, but the breach did not include customer payment information, the company said. “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 s statement. McDonald’s said its day-to-day operations were not affected and that a ransom was not involved. The company said it would use the findings from the investigation to identify ways to improve its security measures.
