700K Guest Records Stolen in Choice Hotels Breach

Choice Hotels confirms a MongoDB breach in which 700,000 guest records were stolen from a publicly available database without a password or any authentication. The unsecured server contained multiple databases holding more than 5.6 million records. Exposed consumer data included names, physical and email addresses, phone numbers, and consent statuses. Most of the compromised records were in a database of 2.4 million records labeled “privacy log” and located in the same MongoDB instance. The hotel chain says it will not be collaborating with this vendor in the future.”]
