Wawa, a convenience store chain based on the East Coast of the United States, has recently suffered a big data breach. For the past nine months, the company’s databases have been under fire from an attack and they have little idea as to who carried it out. Could cryptocurrencies have been an alternative?
As of now, Wawa has made a point to call in the FBI to help find the attacker who may have infected “potentially all” of its stores with malware. That malware was discovered on December 10th and contained two days later, but has been around since at least March 4. However, Wawa cannot say how many of its customers were victims due to “the type of data involved.”
