Security News > 2020 > February > Hackers Post Details on MGM Resorts Guests: Report

Hackers have posted on an underground forum the personal information of 10.6 million MGM Resorts guests, ZDNet reports.

On Thursday, a MGM Resorts spokesperson confirmed to Information Security Media Group that the company was hit by a data breach in the summer of 2019, when attackers accessed a "Cloud server" that contained some details about guests who had visited the company's hotels and resorts.

While best known for its Las Vegas hotel and casino, MGM Resorts owns about 30 hotels and other resort facilities throughout the world.

After discovering the breach in the summer of 2019, MGM says that the company promptly notified guests potentially affected by the security incident in accordance with state laws.

The MGM breach comes amid a slew of other cloud-based data breaches and data leaks.
