"Checkers, Rally's Burger Joints Hit By POS Malware"

Checkers Drive-In Restaurants, which also runs Rally's, had 102 of its 900 U.S. locations affected with a point-of-sale malware, with one California restaurant infected over more than two years, starting in December 2015.  The point-of-sale malware harvested data stored on a payment card's magnetic stripe, including name, card number, card verification code and expiry data.  Checkers, which was acquired by private equity firm Oak Hill Capital Partners in 2017, says it "recently" became aware of the malware and is taking steps to remove it.
