Hackers recently stole sensitive customer data from Wyndham Hotels & Resorts.

"The break-in occurred between late October 2009 and January 2010, when it was finally discovered," writes PCWorld's Robert McMillan. "It affected an undisclosed number of company franchisees and hotel properties that Wyndham manages. Wyndham has acknowledged the incident in a note posted to its Web site."

"This is the third data breach reported by Wyndham in the past year," McMillan writes. "Last February, Wyndham said that hackers stole tens of thousands of credit card numbers between July and August 2008."
