Hot Take:

Who needs a side of bread with their data breach? Not Panera customers, apparently. But that's exactly what they got when cybercriminals decided to add a dash of ransomware to the company's menu. Now that's a recipe for disaster no one ordered. With Social Security numbers as the cherry on top, this breach is leaving a sour taste and proving that even your lunch spot isn't safe from the clutches of modern-day digital pirates. Bon appétit, hackers!
