Data hacking is a problem that has become more popular because companies do not properly manage their confidential information. This time it happened to MGM Resorts. MGM Resorts has been a victim of hackers who attacked the resorts’ data.

Few months after this incident, experts had estimated that the number of guests affected by this data problem could be approximately 10.6 million. The number of guests impacted might be 142,479,937, which is 14 times higher than the original number.

What is even worst is that MGM Grand Hotels data was also under the hackers’ attack. The information includes guests’ information like names, phone numbers, addresses, and emails. This information is always trying to be hacked because it is a high-value tool to be used by publishing companies which could use the customer’s information to send adds and publicity. This is how we sometimes receive calls from companies where we asked ourselves how they have our information. Credit or debit cards’ information were not in the hacked list. If this data were to be included, this event would be a bigger disaster. This incident is a wake-up call to other companies to not keep any unnecessary information for so long.

If you are attempting to erase your data, contact the experts to manage it. Sometimes people do not give the proper value to this, but it is something important because it can cause you troubles with your customers and even legal problems if confidential information ends in the wrong hands.
