And we KNOW it's going to cost Radisson! The hotel announced recently that guests who stayed at Radisson Hotels and Resorts between October 2008 and May 2009 "may have been among" records that were compromised. Not much more info was provided, but....you can bet that Radisson execs aren't sleeping well!
Radisson hotels is alerting some guests that their credit card information may have been stolen by hackers. "Between November 2008 and May 2009, the computer systems of some Radisson hotels in the U.S. and Canada were accessed without authorization," said Radisson's open letter to guests, published today.
"Radisson greatly values guest privacy and deeply regrets this incident occurred," said Fredrik Korallus, Radisson COO, in a statement. "Working with law enforcement and forensic investigators, we are conducting a thorough review of the potentially affected computer systems, and have implemented additional security measures designed to prevent a recurrence of such an attack and to protect guest privacy."
"We are also working closely with major credit card suppliers and law enforcement to ensure the incident is properly addressed," he added.
The company said it "arranged with Equifax Personal Solutions to provide eligible Radisson guests with free credit monitoring for one year if they stayed at certain Radisson properties between November 2008 and May 31, 2009. To be eligible for free credit monitoring, they must enroll by November 18, 2009. "
