McDonald’s Canada has shut down its careers webpage following a breach that occurred in mid-March. A hacker gained access to the jobs section of its website and compromised the personal information, including names, addresses, telephone numbers, employment histories and other job application information of approximately 95,000 individuals.
McDonald’s Canada has notified the privacy commissioners in every province and territory, as well as the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada of the compromise and is in the process of notifying the affected individuals.
