No Mint On The Pillow With Radisson Hotels Breach

Glad I don’t ever stay at Radisson Hotels. Heh. Could happen anywhere to be fair.

From Computer World:

A Radisson spokesman did say that the attack appears to be from an “outside source” and that the company has “no reason to believe it was an insider.”

But Radisson didn’t even realize the attack had taken place until it was contacted by several credit card companies and card processors. The company says it’s taken “additional security measures” to block any future such attacks, and is working with card issuers and credit reporting agencies to identify and resolve any fraudulent usage.

Because the forensic study on what happened is still underway, and federal criminal investigations have been launched in both countries, Radisson reported few other details.

“Additional security measures”? Such as…a security team?

Ba-zing.
