How Airlines don’t care about privacy: Case Study Emirates.com
From my experience the travel industry are the worst offenders of data security. I remember making booking on booking.com and not having to pay for my booking, and I wondered how hotels can confirm bookings, when I went to check in at the hotel I asked this question to the front desk staff, and they simply told me “oh we get a fax or email from the OTA of your credit card information”. You can imagine the look on my face when that happened.<p>Here I am building my online business using tokens with pci dss compliant payment gateway and all these businesses out there don’t even care.<p>My lesson learned then was these industries will do anything to make it more convenient for the travelers to book, even compromise on security.
