Avis Car Rental has reported a significant data breach, impacting roughly 300,000 customers. The company identified unauthorized access to its systems in early August 2024 and confirmed that personal data, including names, addresses, dates of birth, and driver’s license details, had been stolen. Avis responded by notifying affected individuals and offering them free credit monitoring services. The breach lasted several days, with the attackers accessing Avis’s business application from August 3 to August 6. Authorities were alerted as the company worked to contain the incident.
