## Resource

Carnival Corporation suffered a major data breach in April when hackers used social engineering to infiltrate their systems, exposing sensitive passenger data including names, addresses, phone numbers, emails, dates of birth, and government IDs like passports and driver’s licenses. Though Carnival acted quickly to shut down the breach, millions remain unaware of the extent of exposure. The company is offering free credit monitoring and urging travelers to watch for identity theft signs, while also upgrading security measures. The incident underscores the ongoing cybersecurity battle—and how vulnerable consumers remain when big companies fall short. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
