However, the hacker claim they would make payment details and employee files public soon.

Jubilant Foodworks had lodged a formal complaint with the relevant authorities and also filed a complaint with the Cyber Crimes cell and had also hired a global forensic agency to assess the security issue. Hackers claim the search engine includes data of 180 million Domino’s India customer details. it’s worth noting the data breach is limited to Domino’s India that is owned by foodservice company Jubilant Foodworks, meaning it will not contain data captured directly by Domino’s Pizza. Though Jubilant Foodworks also operates in Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, and Nepal, the breach is limited to India.
