Cybersecurity firm hired by the hotel group to investigate suspected payment card system fraud at various US locations.
The InterContinental Hotels Group has hired a cybersecurity firm to probe reports of a possible hack of the payment card systems at some of its hotels at various locations in the US, says Reuters.
