Pizza delivery service Domino’s India suffers a data breach that exposed the data of 18 core customers and sold their information on a hacking forum.
The brand’s country owner, “Jubilant Foodworks experienced an information security incident on 24th March 2021 wherein our systems were attacked by a hacker,” the company said in an email to its customers. “We moved quickly to contain the breach and hired an external agency to do an impact assessment.”
The data breach was first flagged by cybersecurity researcher Rajshekar Rajahsria, who reported that data of 18 crore orders of Domino’s India have become public.
The hacker created a search engine on the dark web that allows anyone to get information about Domino’s India customers by using their phone numbers or email addresses.
According to the company, as a policy, Domino's does not store users' financial information such as complete credit card number, CVV, passwords, etc. Therefore, no such data was compromised.
Even though Jubilant Foodworks said no financial data had been breached, the hackers claim that they would make payment details and employee files public soon.
The company has filed a formal complaint with the relevant authorities and Cyber Crimes cell and hired a global forensic agency to look into the security issue.
Hackers claim the search engine includes data of 180 million Domino's India customer details.
Domino’s Pizza has not disclosed what kind of information was affected by the breach and does not address it either.
