DoorDash Data Breach: When Your Address is More Popular Than You Are!
DoorDash is once again in hot water after a data breach. An unauthorized person accessed contact details, sparking criticism despite DoorDash’s assurances that no “sensitive” information was taken. Users are understandably frustrated, questioning whether being able to deliver pizza on time is worth having their contact details delivered to hackers.
Hot Take:
DoorDash might want to consider changing its name to DoorCrash, given its tendency to let hackers crash the party and help themselves to users’ personal data. With their track record, it’s almost like they’re offering a free side of identity theft with every order of fries. Maybe they should start delivering cybersecurity training to their employees along with the food!
Key Points:
- DoorDash suffered a data breach due to a social engineering scam.
- Stolen information includes names, addresses, emails, and phone numbers.
- No credit card or Social Security numbers were compromised.
- Customers were notified almost three weeks after the breach.
- This is DoorDash’s third major security incident since 2019.
