One of Las Vegas's largest hotel chains has locked its customers out of their rooms after a cyberattack shut down all of its online functions.
MGM Resorts International reported on Monday that its hotel chain had been targeted in a cyberattack. The attack shut down the hotel's website, forcing users to call the Las Vegas-based hotels directly for reservations. The website has been down since at least midnight Eastern time. The attack has reportedly led to a shutdown of the casinos and a lockout of guests from their hotel rooms.
The hack has reportedly affected a number of machines. One user reported that the slot machines and gambling equipment at the Las Vegas-based Aria Resort and Casino were shut down. @LasVegasLocally Everything down still. No ATMs. No Withdrawals from Cashier. Now all the slots seem to be going down pic.twitter.com/iZtQjcGohpMGM Resorts has about 48,000 rooms on The Strip. Devastating. https://t.co/vORhm94JT7Other casinos outside of Las Vegas also reported problems. The Borgata in Atlantic City, New Jersey, is reportedly experiencing the same outages as MGM Resorts properties in Las Vegas.
MGM is no stranger to hacking attempts. The hotel was targeted in 2019 when a hacker stole sensitive information on 142 million guests.
