McDonald's Global Operations Hit by System Outage

The fast-food giant is working to resolve a widespread system failure not linked to cybersecurity, with some regions already back online.

McDonald's global operations were disrupted due to a system outage, affecting orders and payments across various countries.
The issue, not related to a cybersecurity event, was caused by a third-party provider's configuration change.
Operations in Japan, the UK, and Ireland have resumed, while efforts continue to restore service in other affected areas.
Social media and Downdetector reported widespread customer complaints and concerns during the outage.
The fast-food chain has apologized for the inconvenience and assured that the problem is being resolved.
