IT Security for Hotels, Villas and Apartments in Istria & Kvarner

Booking.com Account Attack (Istria)

A hotel in Istria experienced a phishing attack where the attacker attempted to take over the Booking.com account and change bank details. The incident was stopped in less than 2 hours through emergency credential resets and closing active sessions.

Why are hotels and apartments frequent cyber attack targets?

Tourism properties often rely on Booking.com, guest email communication and remote system access, making them frequent targets of phishing attacks, ransomware infections and payment data theft. Attackers especially target smaller hotels and apartments because they often lack dedicated IT security and monitoring of compromised devices.
