Donut chain Krispy Kreme has been the target of a cyber attack after hackers found a hole in its security systems, leading to disruption of its online services.
Some customers in the US have already reported being unable to order from Krispy Kreme’s website and app. The attack has only just been publicized, despite starting in late November, according to the BBC.
“Together, we continue to work diligently to respond to the incident and mitigate its impact, including restoring online ordering,” Krispy Kreme said in a statement.
So far, no groups have taken responsibility for the hack, and we’ll have to see if anyone wants to say they were the ones who found a doughnut hole in the doughnut store. A smaller chain here in Europe, Krispy Kreme is still known around the world, and it’s quite a big brand to not have its security up to par.
