Ticketmaster says data security incident may affect users’ personal details

Thousands of Ticketmaster users may have had their data compromised in a security breach.

Ticketmaster says it discovered unauthorized activity on an isolated cloud database hosted by a third-party data services provider between April 2 and May 18.

The company learned a few days later that some personal information of customers may have been affected, possibly including email, phone number, or encrypted credit-card information.

The Beverly Hills, California-based ticket sales giant says it’s working with authorities and cybersecurity experts, credit-card companies and banks in its investigation, and has found no further unauthorized activity.
