Japanese travel agency H.I.S. Co said Wednesday that passport information for as many as 627 of its customers may have been leaked late last year through unauthorized access to a server belonging to its Thai subsidiary, H.I.S. Tours. The company reported the possible breach, which involves sensitive identity data, and the incident is drawing attention as concerns grow over travel companies' handling of customer information.

Why now: The disclosure of a breach involving passport data is a fresh, sensitive privacy story that raises concerns about data security at travel companies.
