DALLAS, Nov. 26, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- On The Border is actively investigating a security incident that involves a payment processing system servicing some of our restaurants. On November 14, 2019, we determined that some of our guests' payment card information was accessed through malware installed on a payment processing system.
