Leisure travel company Carnival Corporation has started informing customers of a data breach that occurred last year and which resulted in their personal information being accessed by a third-party.
The company owns 10 global cruise line brands and a tour company, has a fleet of 102 ships visiting more than 700 ports around the world, and employs over 120,000 people.
In a data breach notification filed with the attorney general's office in California, Carnival revealed that it launched an investigation after discovering suspicious activity on its network in May 2019.
"We sincerely regret this occurred and for any concern that this may have caused you. We take very seriously our commitment to privacy and data security," the company says.
SecurityWeek has contacted Carnival Corporation via email for additional details on the data breach and will update this article as soon as a reply arrives.
