OPENSHOP’s Approach to Cyber Security in Hospitality

The hospitality industry thrives on delivering exceptional guest experiences, but the reliance on advanced technology to enhance service has also introduced new cybersecurity risks. From protecting guest data to ensuring seamless operations, the stakes are higher than ever. Cybercriminals are increasingly targeting the hospitality sector, drawn by the valuable data and extensive networks used by these businesses.

OPENSHOP understands these unique challenges and provides comprehensive cybersecurity solutions to safeguard hospitality businesses. By combining cutting-edge technology with industry-specific expertise, OPENSHOP enables you to focus on delivering memorable guest experiences while staying protected against cyber threats.

Cybersecurity Risks in Hospitality

The hospitality sector faces a diverse range of cyber threats. Guest privacy is paramount, yet breaches of sensitive information—such as payment details and personal identification—remain a persistent risk. Ransomware attacks, which can bring operations to a halt, are another significant concern, especially during high-demand periods.

Interconnected systems, such as property management platforms and point-of-sale (POS) systems, introduce further vulnerabilities. When not properly secured, these systems become gateways for unauthorised access, jeopardising both data and operations.
