About this breach
In January 2026, Panera Bread suffered a data breach that exposed 14M records. After an attempted extortion failed, the attackers published the data publicly, which included 5.1M unique email addresses along with associated account information such as names, phone numbers and physical addresses. Panera Bread subsequently confirmed that "the data involved is contact information" and that authorities were notified.
