Secure your franchise network from a single compromised location
A single compromised franchise location can cascade through shared POS, payment gateways, and inventory systems to impact your entire network. Central systems concentrate the data of every location: in September 2023, Pizza Hut Australia notified about 193,000 customers after an attacker accessed a customer database. NodeZero tests your franchise segmentation at scale.
Your specific challenges
Cascading compromise risk
Franchisees operate with varying security maturity. Shared POS and payment systems mean a breach at one location can cascade to all franchisees and the franchisor.
Franchise data obligations
The remade Franchising Code commenced in April 2025, and each franchisor and franchisee covered by the Privacy Act carries its own APP 11 obligation to secure the customer data it holds.
Minimal franchisee IT support
Franchise sites can run with limited IT resources, so weak WiFi passwords, missing firewalls or shared POS credentials at one site can go unnoticed.
Built for your situation
Franchise network segmentation testing
Test isolation of each franchise location from the franchisor back-end and from other franchisees. Validate firewall rules and VLAN separation across the network.
Single-site compromise testing
Run an internal pentest from a single franchise site to show whether an attacker there could reach the franchisor back-end or other sites, then re-test with Quick Verify after fixes.
