Starbucks Corporation has reported a cybersecurity incident affecting 889 individuals, compromising personal and financial data. The breach involved the Starbucks Partner Central platform, which manages human resources, employee benefits, and payroll details.

The unauthorized access occurred from January 19 to February 11, 2026. After detecting the activity on February 6, Starbucks revoked the attackers' access by February 11. The investigation revealed that threat actors used credential harvesting techniques, directing employees to phishing websites mimicking the Starbucks Partner Central portal.

The attack exposed sensitive information including employees' full names, dates of birth, Social Security numbers, financial account numbers, and banking routing numbers associated with direct deposits. In response, Starbucks terminated unauthorized access, notified federal law enforcement, and enhanced its internal security controls.
