Neben SPG / Marriott (DSGVO: 110 MILLIONEN Euro Strafe für Marriott) hat auch British Airways ein paar Kundendaten verloren. Wie bei Marriott / SPG waren die Daten von einer halben Million Kunden betroffen.
Die britische Datenschutzkommission hat die Ermittlungen auch für andere Datenschutzkommissionen übernommen. Man droht mit einer 200 Millionen Euro Strafe.
Die Pressemitteilung:
“Following an extensive investigation the ICO has issued a notice of its intention to fine British Airways £183.39M for infringements of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
The proposed fine relates to a cyber incident notified to the ICO by British Airways in September 2018. This incident in part involved user traffic to the British Airways website being diverted to a fraudulent site. Through this false site, customer details were harvested by the attackers. Personal data of approximately 500,000 customers were compromised in this incident, which is believed to have begun in June 2018.
The ICO’s investigation has found that a variety of information was compromised by poor security arrangements at the company, including log in, payment card, and travel booking details as well name and address information.”
