## Summary

A data breach at Amadeus, a software provider used by Singapore Airlines (SIA), exposed about 46,000 booking records. Cybersecurity experts say the details could help criminals create convincing scams by referring to passengers’ real flights, making messages seem trustworthy.

The exposed records included names, booking references, travel itineraries and booking classes. About 620 records may also have contained email addresses, phone numbers, travel document details and KrisFlyer membership numbers. Depending on airline security checks, criminals could also try to access or alter reservations, target frequent-flyer accounts, or combine the data with information from other breaches.
