Marriott Hotel Data Breach: Ongoing Since 2014

Marriott said that a massive data breach of its guest reservation system has left up to 500 million guests’ data exposed and available for the taking. Worse, the attackers may have had access to the systems for at least four years before being discovered.

The hotel company said in a statement on its website that hackers gained access to the Starwood reservation database. Starwood, which includes hotels like St. Regis and Sheraton, was bought by Marriott in 2016.
