Landry's warns of restaurant data breach
The Daily News - Galveston County
Landry's Inc. announced Thursday that people who ordered food or drinks at some of its restaurants, including in Galveston and Kemah, might have be affected by an attempted data breach.
Houston-based Landry's recently detected someone trying to make unauthorized access to its network of payment processing systems, the company said in a news release.
While investigating that breach, a cybersecurity firm found credit card data of some Landry's customers might have been exposed to malware, the company said.
The exposure came when Landry's waitstaff swiped cards on devices that were not meant to process payments and did not have the same encryption protections as payment devices, the company said.
