AGP Executive Report
Last update: 12 hours agoCybersecurity Shock: France’s tourism sector is hit again as Gîtes de France joins two other booking platforms affected by cyberattacks, saying hackers accessed booking data tied to potentially 389,000 clients (names, stay dates and nights, emails, phone numbers, and postal addresses) with no banking details taken; impacted customers are set to be emailed on May 18, and Guadeloupe is among the French departments reportedly affected. Regional Context: The week also brought a reminder of how fast disruption travels in the Caribbean—LIAT adjusted flight operations amid global fuel price pressure, while the Bahamas received a Moody’s upgrade to “Ba3” with a positive outlook. Local Relevance: For Basse-Terre, the key takeaway is practical: tourism data security is now a direct political and economic issue, not just a tech story.
