What was the impact of the Country Inn and Suites incident of Oct 01, 2024?

Question

Accepted Answer

The cyber incident involving the Country Inn & Suites by Radisson, orchestrated by the ransomware gang Everest, was characterized by a significant data breach. The attackers managed to compromise a substantial amount of personal information belonging to thousands of clients, encompassing sensitive details such as credit card information, billing details, and internal communications. In addition to customer data, other information such as incidents, internal emails, messages, and calendar details of both past and forthcoming bookings were also exposed. Moreover, proprietary data, including Choice/Radisson reward account numbers, guest tax ID rewards, and program billing details, were compromised, presenting potential risks for both clients and the company. Although there is no explicit mention of systems or services being taken offline, the presence of a threat of data leaks via a countdown for negotiations posed by Everest highlights the severity of the situation. The incident underscores the ongoing cybersecurity challenges within the hospitality industry, especially in the wake of past breaches like the MOVEit hack.
