Customer details stolen from Amadeus distributor in India

General News

Summary

Amadeus says customer information was stolen from Resbird Technologies, its independent distributor in India, in January 2019. The employee is then believed to have passed the information to a third party that specializes in SIM cards for mobile phones. The statement says a number of actions have been taken, including the employment terminated for the person involved and a report filed with the police in India. It is not known how many records were accessed, but Amadeus felt it was large enough to file a report with the Spanish data protection authority. It has also sent a “cease and desist letter” to the SIM card company for the stolen information to be returned or destroyed.
