Michigan Wendy's locations, located in nearly every part of the state, are impacted. (Full list below.) The breach was first reported in February, but authorities with the company discovered last month that additional malware was found. The number of locations involved is now believed to be "considerably higher" than 300, the company said in a news release.
"We are committed to protecting our customers and keeping them informed. We sincerely apologize to anyone who has been inconvenienced as a result of these highly sophisticated, criminal cyberattacks involving some Wendy's restaurants," said Wendy's President and CEO Todd Penegor.
