Personal Identifiable Information of 30m T-mobile customers in the US for sale at 1p each in the #Darknet. Thinking of #hotel loyalty programmes and their #cyber vulnerabilities, are 'experts' still talking about password policies? #CyberSecurity #infosec threatpost.com/t-mobile-inves…

#NewZealand enters nationwide #lockdown over one #COVID19 case. Stark comparisons with the average daily number of 28K+ in UK. I wonder how their #hospitality professionals will receive this news. #riskmanagement bbc.co.uk/news/world-asi…

This is the most refreshing way to manage such a 'crisis'. I couldn't agree more with the authorities #crisis response strategy #crisismanagement #hospitality #tourism theguardian.com/world/2021/aug…

I guess this is another "let them et cake" case? #Brexit #Nandos #hospitality #SupplyChain independent.co.uk/news/uk/politi…

The UK & US have still not even asked EU for mutual recognition. It's probably because 'they need us more than we need them'? #COVID19 #brexit #riskmanagement lesoir.be/390238/article…

It appears that Joy Morrissey MP believes that the voters' opinion is of value only when she asks for their vote and only if they agree with the party and the government. All other views are just from contemptible "armchair critics".

#Indonesia 's #COVID19 test and trace app suffers major #databreach exposing travellers' personal and health data. Overseen #Bluetooth vulnerabilities make such apps an easy target for #cybercriminals #infosec #CyberSecurity #riskmanagement #airlines zdnet.com/article/passpo…

I don't know how to take this. From an 'interim yellow card' a trafficker is now given a '10-year yellow card'? Next time (if caught) it's a 'red' and prison for 5 years? Interesting development but not quite a detterent for #modernslavery #HumanTrafficking #labourexploitation

One of the many obvious benefits of #Brexit. Making measurements more difficult for the rest of the world to work out will emphasize our regained "Britishness"! ft.com/content/23569c…

Problem sorted! The Europeans who left because of #Brexit will be now flocking up to come back to UK for 3 months before being sent home again 😂😂😂 #SupplyChain #food #hospitality bbc.co.uk/news/business-…

Unacceptable customer service TalkTalk. One hour international call asking them to email my most recent bill for an ID proof needed abroad from where I have no access to Myaccount. My request will be processed in 24-48 hours. Too bad by then I will no longer be their customer

It is not exactly Genetically Modified foods that will now be allowed to reach our tables as another #Brexit benefit. Just #GeneEdited or 'GM-light' ones, which of course pause absolutely no risks whatsoever 🤦🏻‍♂️ #hospitality #catering #riskmanagement bbc.com/news/science-e…

#SupplyChain collapse is a good thing? "It was high time that Britain returned to the good old days when farmers sold their milk to the village shop" says Tory MP Chris Loder in a 'reverse progress' to the past approach. Next: the good old days of abacus? google.co.uk/amp/s/www.thel…

The #Conti #ransomware group breached the tour operator FTI Group of FTI Touristik GmbH and stole customer passport and ID information and FTI financial data now published in the #Darknet. Unclear whether FTI negotiated any #ransom #infosec #databreach inside-it.ch/de/post/hacker…

Despite the assurance by Uni of Reading that the poem written by Semonides of Amorgos 27+ centuries ago was not 'cancelled' but merely 'edited' something feels terribly wrong here telegraph.co.uk/news/2022/01/0…

When a TV presenter and 'journalist' is shamelessly suggesting that she prefers to be a human trafficker and belittles an activist teenager in such a way just because she disagrees with her activism, there is something seriously wrong with our media #modernslavery Julia Hartley-Brewer

After the pandemic, the war in Ukraine, the striking nurses and railway workers, the small boats, and the bad weather in Morocco, we now found the REAL cause of inflation in this country. Nothing to do with incompetence or greed. Nothing to do with #Brexit opportunities 🙄
