American Airlines Data Breach

Hackers Used Phishing Campaign

Personal Information Exposed

Dallas, Texas (AP) - American Airlines has confirmed a data breach after hackers used a phishing campaign to breach employee email accounts. The airline says that a "very small number" of customer and employee personal information was exposed.

American Airlines is working with law enforcement to investigate the incident and has taken steps to mitigate the impact on affected individuals. The company is also notifying affected customers and employees and offering them identity theft protection services.

The data breach is the latest in a series of recent security incidents involving airlines. Earlier this year, Delta Air Lines and Alaska Airlines were both hit by data breaches.
