WASHINGTON ― Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump’s luxury hotel company agreed Friday to pay a $50,000 settlement and beef up its security systems after investigators found that Trump’s hotels failed to notify customers that a hacker had stolen their credit card numbers and personal information from Trump Hotel computers.

Following the initial identity theft in 2015, Trump’s hotels never implemented the cybersecurity plan they were given to prevent a second attack. As a result, Trump’s hotels and some of his condo properties were hacked again less than a year later. When banks alerted the company to the second hack in March, Trump Hotel Collection waited three more months before telling potential victims about the second hack.

“It is vital in this digital age that companies take all precautions to ensure that consumer information is protected, and that if a data breach occurs, it is reported promptly to our office, in accordance with state law,” said New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman in a statement about the settlement on Friday. New York law requires that companies inform their customers as soon as possible about the suspected theft of personal information.

After they initially tried to cover up the first cyber attack, hotel employees did nothing to fix the vulnerabilities, despite having received written recommendations on how to protect their customers from hackers and thieves. This left Trump’s hotels defenseless when the hackers struck a second time. Once again, Trump waited months before alerting potential victims.

Trump is a CLASS A asshole.

I heard that one of Trump's employees kicked a dog. Just awful.

I heard when Trump was younger he stepped on a crack and broke his mothers back.

 

[Onyx]

His businesses have broke the law many times. He is pretty much a puppet of the mafia.

His entire wealth was built on dishonest business practices, and he has screwed over many people to save himself. Whether they were his fellow investors or his employees.

 

[EvilCat Breath]

How many minutes after the election will the outrage du jour stop?

Will it be faster than the dissipation of the fake Herman Caine bimbo eruption?

Matthew is getting scared that Trump has a chance to win against Hildebeast. Watching him squirm is so much fun!
