That was the first question that came to mind when I saw this post yesterday. The manufacturer is Invenda. apparently a Swiss maker of "intelligent vending solutions."

Their "solutions" are really creepy, offering "facial recognition, real-time inventory control, digital signage, remote pricing and telematics."

More importantly, the machine "communicates with an operator’s home office via a secure wireless cloud connection."

This story keeps repeating itself.

Unauthorized access was detected on July 28, but cybersecurity pros were hired on August 2. That's FIVE days later. What can I do in five days? A lot. And this assumes that the thieves weren't active in the networks before July 28. Adding insult to injury, the breach notice to customers went out on August 10.
