Now the REAL kick in the dick is the source code leak. Mainly, it will have to be re-built if they plan on continuing with Shark Cards, and they will. Otherwise, it can be reverse engineered in it's current state to just give infinite shark cards on-demand. That type of infrastructure is not built in a day, and has to be compliant on the customer-facing end to be allowed to take credit cards. For a machine to take credit card payments, it has to be compliant with PCI rules. It's a fucking mess.
That's the shittiest of the shitty. The EE who got wreck'd will also be let go...... that poor sod will be dragged through the mud 100 different ways. Hopefully, there's no legal recourse for what is presumably, a silly mistake.
