"This settlement requires Marriott to enhance its security practices, promptly notify customers of incidents, and demonstrate an ongoing commitment to data protection. I will continue to work alongside my colleagues to hold corporations accountable for breaches that compromise personal information and advocate for stronger consumer protection laws in Michigan."  According to the Michigan Attorney General's press release on the lawsuit, Marriott agreed to strengthen its cybersecurity practices by: Having a independent third-party assessment of Marriott’s information security program every two years for a period of 20 years. Implement a comprehensive Information Security Program.  Improving data minimization and disposal requirements. Improving security requirements with respect to consumer data. Increasing vendor and franchisee oversight. The lawsuit came after Marriott acquired Starwood in 2016. According to the press release, intruders were in the system from July 2014 until Sept. 2018. Following the announcement of the data breach, a coalition of 50 Attorneys General launched a multi-state investigation into the breach. In November 2018, Marriott said unencrypted passport numbers for at least 5.25 million guests were accessed, as well as credit card information for 8.6 million guests. The FBI led the investigation of that data theft, and investigators suspected the hackers were working on behalf of the Chinese Ministry of State Security, the rough equivalent of the CIA.
