India’s flag carrier Air India Ltd. has revealed that the personal data of some 4.5 million of its customers was stolen following an attack on airline information technology services company SITA in March.
The data stolen included passenger names, credit card details, dates of birth, contact information, ticket information and frequent-flyer data. The airline noted that passwords were not affected. The stolen data covers passengers who traveled with the airline between August 2011 and February this year.
Air India said in a recent statement reported over the weekend that it had taken measures since first becoming aware of the breach, including launching an investigation, securing compromised servers, engaging third-party specialists, notifying and liaising with credit card issuers, and resetting passwords of the Air India frequent flyer program.
A leading Japanese matchmaking app was hacked, likely exposing the personal information of more than 1.7 million account holders, in the latest high-profile online attack.

Neither made the top 10 before the pandemic. Orlando to San Juan in the US territory of Puerto Rico sits at second-busiest overall, behind Moscow to Simferopol, in the disputed Crimea region.
