According to Noodles & Company (“Noodles”), it received information from Visa that Visa cards used by customers at its fast-food chains since January have “possibly” been compromised. It is presently investigating unusual activity reported by Visa, are working with law enforcement, and has brought in a forensic firm to assist with the analysis.

This may be another in a long line of retail chains that have suffered a compromise of their point of sale systems over the past two years. Noodles is reportedly in the process of transitioning to chip cards, but apparently, they didn’t transition quickly enough to avert a “possible” data breach.
