“The Federal Trade Commission Tuesday announced that it had filed a suit against global hospitality company Wyndham Worldwide Corporation, as well as three of its subsidiaries. The FTC has accused Wyndham of failing to institute a robust information security program, even in the wake of a major exploit. Ultimately, attackers breached its networks three times in just two years, resulting in the exposure of over 600,000 credit card accounts and $10.6 million in fraudulent credit card charges, the FTC alleged.”
