InterContinental Hotels Group reveals 'how it minimized recent malware attack'

The InterContinental Hotels Group (IHG) claims the implementation of its Secure Payment Solution (SPS) has helped to minimize a recent data breach that may have affected as many as 1,000 of its branches of hotels across the Americas.

The group confirmed in February that it had suffered a data breach towards the end of 2016, adding that malware had been used in an attempt to steal payment card data from the front desks at certain IHG branded hotels across the region.
