Wawa, Inc. agreed to an $8 million settlement for a 2019 data breach which occurred due to Wawa’s failure to deploy reasonable information security measures. Hackers accessed Wawa’s network and extracted sensitive customer information, impacting stores in 6 states and the District of Columbia. In addition to the payment, Wawa is required to implement new security practices to secure customers’ sensitive personal information, including providing resources necessary to implement their security program and providing security awareness and privacy training.
