Eleven stores in Denmark closed their doors yesterday after a cyber attack disrupted pay and order systems in stores across the country. The attack took place in the early morning of August 8, when the company posted a message on Facebook stating that they were probably “under hacker attack”. The company has closed all stores in the country for the duration of the investigation into the security incident, the statement said. Monday August 8, 2022, “Unfortunately, we suspect that we have experienced a hacker attack today. This means that we will not be able to use the cash register and/or take payouts. Therefore, we are keeping the stores closed until we find the size. We hope that we will be able to reopen stores soon. Now, a deleted Reddit message written by a 7-Eleven employee in Denmark has also confirmed the cyber attack, saying they were forced to close the store after the ordering system crashed.
