Underwood’s communications director, Amy Spitalnick, told Bloomberg on Friday that Marriott was required to notify its office that a breach had been discovered, but had not yet done so. Marriott could be liable for the first significant fining of a brand under GDPR , following a major data breach that exposed the personal data of Around 327 million of its customers. The exposure was discovered in 2014 but may affect records as far back as 2014 . The size of the breach and the fact it goes back several years both point to a likely Marriott penalty, according to Amy Spitalnick senior analyst Enza Iannopollo .
