Trump Hotels Hit By 3rd Card Breach in 2 Years

Summary: Trump International Hotels Management LLC disclosed its third credit-card data breach in two years, with the latest incident tied to a Sabre Corp. reservations-system breach that affected at least 13 Trump Hotel properties between August 2016 and March 2017. Trump Hotels said it was first notified of the breach on June 5, and other chains disclosing Sabre-related impact that week included 11 Hard Rock properties, Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts, and at least two dozen Loews Hotels in the United States and Canada.

Key Takeaway: Verizon's Data Breach Investigations Report found accommodation was the top industry for point-of-sale intrusions, with 87% of breaches in that pattern, and the author notes he has yet to encounter a single U.S. hotel in the past year that asked him to dip a chip-based card rather than swipe it.
