Following a data breach, a multinational airline based in Europe wanted urgently to accelerate their PCI DSS compliance program with a solution designed to identify and protect payment card data across the organization.
With Enterprise Recon PII deployed, the airline could identify and manage credit card data wherever it was stored in their systems, enabling them to achieve PCI DSS compliance.

The transportation industry has always moved us across geographic boundaries, but today, it’s pushing digital boundaries as well.
Airlines, automobile manufacturers and other types of transportation companies are collecting and sharing increasing amounts of customer data.
Customers trust these businesses with vast amounts of sensitive personal information, including passport information, drivers’ license numbers and payment card data.
In 2020, a domestic multinational airline based in Europe suffered a significant data loss. A highly sophisticated cyber-attack affected personal and cardholder data from approximately 9 million of the airline’s customers – both a major issue for the customers and a reputational problem for the brand.
Because this airline handles such a high volume of credit card numbers, the team knew it had a monumental task ahead to find where all that data was being stored. In 2020, it decided to partner with Ground Labs and now relies on award-winning Enterprise Recon to meet and maintain PCI DSS compliance.
The company uses Enterprise Recon PII to find where credit card numbers are stored within its structured and unstructured data sources – including files, databases, emails, cloud, big data and more. After scanning for credit card numbers, Enterprise Recon PII allows the team to view and analyze where sensitive data resides and immediately contact the owners to take action.
Ultimately, Enterprise Recon PII provides a blueprint of the social security and credit card number storage locations across the organization, allowing the airline to ensure on an ongoing basis that it is not storing any social security or credit card numbers unnecessarily, and address any vulnerable or unauthorized data stores. It ensures that the company can securely store and protect the sensitive information of its customers.
Within the first quarter of scanning with Ground Labs’ Enterprise Recon, the airline identified over 60 million card numbers dispersed across their digital ecosystem. Enterprise Recon’s delegated remediation feature enabled the airline to assign multiple teams to address the risk using Enterprise Recon so this massive undertaking didn’t fall solely on the shoulders of IT.
