Cunard Cruise LinesAdmittedly, this isnt the sort of challenge I would ask of a completely green MATLAB user, more like someone who is a couple weeks or months into learning it.In 2012, Dori Saltzman, a news editor and journalist in the travel industry, reported that an employee at Cunard Cruise Lines sent an email with an attachment thatIncluded 1,225 passengers’ booking reference numbers, names, and email addresses (2012). The data given to the DEA included each traveler’s names, credit card number, passport numbers, and date of birth (Office of Inspector General, 2014). The DEA paid the secretary a total of $854,460 during that period. In 2014, Amtrak’s investigation concluded that a secretary sold passenger information to the UnitedStates Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA) starting in 1995. Fortunately, there is a solution.A passenger data breach caused by employee misuse of access brings into lightthe question of whether internal control exists to prevent this type of data breach.
The leaked data included names, addresses, Social Security number, and passport information (Higgins, 2011). US AirwaysKelly Jackson Higgins, executive director and a technology and businessjournalist published, “Thousands of US Airways Pilots Victims of Possible Insider Data Breach,” here she reported that in October 2009, a group named Leonidas leaked 3,000 US Airways pilots’ personal information. The email submitted contained the heading “Emergency Notification Urgent” which indicated that due to problems, Cunard would send new booking referencing numbers via email in the next 48 hours (Saltzman 2012).
Approximately 10,000 frequent flyer accounts were hacked and trips with the stolen miles booked (Watson, 2015). United Airlines and American AirlinesExecutive and contributor for IT Governance, and cybersecurity author, reported that United Airlines and American Airlines both experienced a data breach when they each discovered the theft of frequent flyer miles from passenger accounts by a third party vendor. The USAPA provided all pilots 12 months of LifeLock’s identity theft program. USAPA believed a labor dispute between what was once American West pilots, and current US Airways pilots, appear to be the reason for the data leak (Higgins, 2011).
United Airlines reported no relationship to the June and July 2015 hack related to the network outages that grounded their entire fleet (RT, 2015). The attackers breached data containing passengermovement throughout United Airlines routes. United Airlines detected the attack on their system in May or June of 2015. The internal probe began after a hacker group breached government data that included government employee information and insurance holders. United AirlinesUnited Airlines found a data breach after launching an internal probe.
Exposure to an attack due to the third party vendor’s poor security practices creates brand damage, additional work in creating accounts and restoring miles, and the possibility of financial losses (Watson, 2015). Passenger data breach allows hackers to enter into the airline’s website reservation system and book travel reservations with the compromised passenger data.
