Marriott Faces $124 Million Fine Over Starwood Data Breach – WSJ

By Securities Docket on July 12, 2019, 8:43 am

Marriott International Inc. MAR 0.23% faces a potential £99.2 million ($123.6 million) fine from the U.K.’s privacy watchdog over a consumer-data breach, as the regulator raises pressure on businesses to comply with Europe’s data-protection rules.

The fine—related to a huge breach of the Starwood Hotels guest reservation database—comes a day after the same regulator, the Information Commissioner’s Office, proposed a record $230 million fine against British Airways for failing to protect passenger data after a hack last year.
