The FTC has filed suit against global hospitality company Wyndham Worldwide Corporation and three of its subsidiaries for not protecting people’s personal information. According to the FTC, the alleged security failures led to three data breaches at Wyndham hotels in less than two years; as a result, the credit card data of hundreds of thousands of people was exported to an Internet domain registered in Russia, and millions of dollars were lost to fraud. In its complaint, the FTC says that Wyndham’s privacy policy misrepresented the security measures the company took to protect people’s information. And even after faulty security led to one breach, the FTC charged, Wyndham failed to correct security vulnerabilities it knew about or take other reasonable measures.
