lennythenose Posted July 27 #227 Share Posted July 27 I was able to log into my account from my phone but when I clicked on manage my cruise I got this error. Of course I’ve been getting this on and off for a couple of weeks so it may not be connected to the security issue at all. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any place they’re giving passengers a heads-up to watch for suspicious activity? U.S. rule requires public companies to disclose cybersecurity breaches. But if it is Princess' dumb IT's doing/mistakes, then it seems to be a grey area as far as disclosure or reporting is concerned. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wishing on a star Posted July 27 #231 Share Posted July 27 (edited) A data breach, a corruption of private data, is still a breach, whether it is from the corporation or from an outside 'hacker'. There is NO excuse for how this is being handled, from the very top corporate level down. Just like the major issues with the roll-out and ongoing changes on the new ship. I wish we were in a position to switch everything over to another cruise line. But, one that isn't a floating amusement park seems to come at a real price point right now. I am just glad that we have no pressing reason to log in and try to do anything online with Princess right now. Not sure if not being logged in has any effect on whether a persons info is displayed to somebody else. But...

voljeep Posted July 27 #232 Share Posted July 27 No excuses, of course ... but please post if this is the FIRST TIME that you have ever gotten a notification that a company has been "compromised" and certain information may have been leaked... certainly not a first for us ... we deal with it pro-actively ... and move on it's the ____________ that we have chosen to deal with in our purchases and online activities. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wishing on a star Posted July 27 #234 Share Posted July 27 That is the thing. When we clip to pull up the APP, on iPhone, it is like it automatically knows that it is us (like cookies?) and takes us to our next upcoming cruise/bookiing, that we have been looking at, dining, etc... It is automatic... No logging in necessary. We have the APP on DH's phone, and I believe this is how it has been working/operating. Of course, online, you have to be logged in, or enter the specific booking info, to pull up a booking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Except Princess hasn't notified anyone of anything.... At least in the past, companies who have potentially lost my data admitted it and offered me some credit monitoring as compensation. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare EllieinNJ Posted July 28 #238 Share Posted July 28 I just got notified by Ticketmaster about a breach and I think their breach was quite a while ago too. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It just included information about which phone numbers called/texted other phone numbers. No names, credit card info, SS numbers, passport numbers, etc. Also, just because the breach happened a year ago doesn't mean that's when the knew it happened. They could have found out about it much later, whereas Princess clearly knows that this incident happened it is all over social media and they have taken down their login services several times as they have worked to resolve it.

twotravelersfromflorida Posted July 28 #240 Share Posted July 28 I just looked at the cruise we are taking in December to see if friends could still book and found the room we are booked in listed as available. If I log in to the site and go to my booking, it shows the room as ours, yet I then checked for new bookings and my room still shows as available. Anyone else found this issue? 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get an error message when I try to choose a cabin. I’ve tried several itineraries. So while I can’t check at the moment I will keep trying.

Treasure Hunter Posted July 28 #242 Share Posted July 28 Do you think it’s possible to double sell a room. Sort of like the three Bears and Goldilocks. Could you arrive at your room and find another person there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adam has been in the tech industry for 25 years. One of his very good friends who works at Apple was over for dinner and was on his laptop fixing an issue with iMessage. We are used to this 24/7 type of remote work so it wasn’t weird at all. But what shocked me (not Adam of course) was that Travis said it was just him and another guy who managed all of iMessage for Apple. oh and I can check cabin availability as long as I’m not logged in. Go figure. Edited July 28 by HaveDogWillTravel 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boku Posted July 28 #244 Share Posted July 28 Was this a breach or a database malfunction? The answer must dictate the response from Princess. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Without Princess chiming in, how can we know? I know where I used to work, we were always to do testing using data from a test database whenever implementing a change in our programs. I’m really hoping that was the case with Princess when they changed the pricing displays and not actual passenger data. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First it is an issue with authentication for access. Then it could become a breach if bad people find out and steal information. The first thing Adam did when I told him is he checked multiple sites ( twitter was one but he uses some I’ve never heard of but tech geeks use) and said he didn’t see any postings there. He said that was good but of course no guarantee that hackers didn’t take advantage of the flaws. So we don’t know if our data was breached or not. And Princess may not know yet.

People who shouldn't have access to other users' data had access to all sorts of other people's PII. Whether those people were hackers or just idiots posting screenshots on Facebook, people's data was compromised. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It might dictate the response by Princess IT techs, but it should not affect outward facing response. The fact that a user is involuntarily presented with private data of another user makes this a beach of the Princess privacy policy. Sadly, Princess appears to be an ostrich. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
