Das SPG Datenleck könnte Marriott schon jetzt mal 110 Millionen Euro kosten …
Noch unter SPG hat man doch einige Kundendaten verloren (Marriott / SPG verlieren 500 Millionen Kundendaten). Also es waren die von einer halben Milliarde Kunden.
Jetzt droht die erste Strafe. Die UK Datenschutzbehörde droht Marriott mit 110 Millionen Euro Strafe.
Die Pressemitteilung:
„Following an extensive investigation the ICO has issued a notice of its intention to fine Marriott International £99,200,396 for infringements of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
The proposed fine relates to a cyber incident which was notified to the ICO by Marriott in November 2018. A variety of personal data contained in approximately 339 million guest records globally were exposed by the incident, of which around 30 million related to residents of 31 countries in the European Economic Area (EEA). Seven million related to UK residents.
It is believed the vulnerability began when the systems of the Starwood hotels group were compromised in 2014. Marriott subsequently acquired Starwood in 2016, but the exposure of customer information was not discovered until 2018. The ICO’s investigation found that Marriott failed to undertake sufficient due diligence when it bought Starwood and should also have done more to secure its systems.“

Das sind ca. 30cent pro Weltmensch, oder ca. 3€ pro EUMensch. Je nachdem was die Berechnungsgrundlage ist. Schnäppchen würde ich sagen.
4% des Jahresumsatzes wären möglich. Das wäre teurer gekommen.
