The company said hackers targeted cardholder names, card numbers and the three-digit card verification value (CVV) number found on the back of cards.

Wendy's had in June said the malware, which was a variant of a malware it had found earlier, had targeted point-of-sales systems, but had not said what information had been compromised.
