Booking.com suffers data breach

The breach was discovered following 'suspicious activity' on the platform's internal systems.

While the company stated that payment information and passwords remain secure, the exposed data significantly increases the risk of targeted phishing attacks.

Cybersecurity experts have urged travelers to be vigilant for fraudulent communications appearing to come from the site.

This incident is the latest in a series of high-profile cyberattacks targeting major global travel and hospitality firms.
