North Country Business Products point-of-sale and security solutions provider with roughly 6500 customers around the Midwest has disclosed a data breach which led to the exposure of payment information for clients who used their credit and debit cards at 137 restaurants. North Country first observed that suspicious activity was present on some of its clients’ networks on January 4 and a joint investigation with a third-party cybersecurity forensic firm established that the cause was malware deployed on its partner restaurants’ networks. The company has also set up a dedicated assistance line for individuals who want to learn more about the security incident.
