“Following an investigation, Sabre notified us on June 6, 2017 that an unauthorized party gained access to account credentials that permitted access to payment card data and certain reservation information for some Loews Hotels’ hotel reservations processed through Sabre’s CRS,” the Loews Hotels said.
“Every organization entrusted with PII — both the direct-to-consumer providers such as the hospitality chains and the third parties such as Sabre — should constantly be testing and hardening their defenses, and embracing more proactive and effective levels of security such as consumer behavior analytics solutions to help prevent identity thefts,” Lisa Baergen, director of marketing at NuData Security.
“As cybercriminals continue to evolve their methods and capabilities, the challenge facing cyber security professionals will only grow,” Guidance Software president and CEO Patrick Dennis said in a statement. “We see this reflected in the data on the frequency of attacks, costs of a breach and more. Enterprises are beginning to realize that compromise is inevitable, so they need to ensure that they have a complete strategy that includes costs for prevention and deep detection and response tools.”RiskVision CEO Joe Fantuzzi said.
