McDonald’s Corp (MCD.N)<\/a>, 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.<\/p>\n

The attackers accessed e-mails, phone numbers and delivery addresses, but the breach did not include customer payment information, the company said.<\/p>\n

The details of the breach in the two regions were the result of an investigation by external consultants following an unauthorized activity on the company’s network.<\/p>\n

“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.<\/p>\n
