SOUTHLAKE, Texas—Sabre Corp., a travel technology company, has been hit by a data breach, the company acknowledged.
But Sabre Corp., whose technology is used by more than 32,000 hotel properties, is not sharing which of its clients we impacted, nor did it share how or when the breach occurred.
KrebsOnSecurity reported the incident, obtaining the details from Sabre Corp.’s Securities and Exchange Commission quarterly filing.
Krebs said the breach could be “significant.”
According to Krebs, Sabre said it has engaged security forensics firm Mandiant to support its investigation, and that it has notified law enforcement.
Krebs reported that Sabre Corp. sent a brief statement to affected properties saying, “The unauthorized access has been shut off and there is no evidence of continued unauthorized activity . . . There is no reason to believe that any other Sabre systems beyond SynXis Central Reservations have been affected.”
