Hotels.com, Expedia provider exposed data for millions of guests

The hotel market now has a possibly serious security headache on its hands alongside the pandemic. Website Planet reports that Prestige Software, the company behind hotel reservation platforms for Hotels.com, Booking.com and Expedia, left data exposed for “millions” of visitors on an Amazon Web Services S3 pail. The 10 million-plus log files dated as far back as 2013 and included names, charge card details, ID numbers and appointment details.Its not particular how long the data was left open, or if anyone took the information. Site Planet stated the hole was closed a day after telling AWS about the exposure. Status verified that it owned the information.
