    This article discusses the most active cyber threats that exist today. I chose this article because it highlights a topic many industry leaders aren't aware of. Many view cyber attacks as crimes of opportunity, which they often are. However, we have to remember that there are also dedicated groups who are committed to acquiring data they shouldn't have. Knowing these groups, their signs, and what industries they target can help create a stronger team and plan to protect against them. These are especially common in hospitality and retail.

5 Ways Biometrics Could Change the Hospitality Industry | RoomKeyPMS - 0 views

  • Biometrics aren’t just used to enhance the guest experience. They can also help create in-house efficiencies as well, such as with a biometric-based system to track when employees
  • Check-in via facial recognition is already active at hotels in China. FlyZoo, a 290-room hotel located in Hangzhou, allows guests to select their floor and room during booking on their mobile app.
  • Skipping all check-in formalities may not always been an option, but fingerprint or facial scanning can help to expedite the process.
  • ...4 more annotations...
  • First, by making guest rooms accessible only by fingerprint or facial scanning, it eliminates the needs to manage key card inventory and the headache of lost, stolen, or deactivated cards.
  • The use of biometric data can help to ‘announce’ guests, their information, and their preferences without them having to provide any additional information.
  • Requiring the use of a fingerprint to authorize any additional payments during a hotel stay, such as food and beverage orders, spa treatments, or in-room entertainment purchases, makes check-out billing quick and accurate.
  • As the population becomes more comfortable with the use of biometrics in everyday life — such as using our fingerprints or faces to unlock our mobile devices — they will come to expect that same ease of identity verification for other purchases or experiences, like travel.
  •  
    Nothing ground breaking from what we have already heard. But the lack of response from the majority of the industry to implement is astonishing.
  •  
    Rapid Check-in, Easy & secure payments, Personalized Guest Experience, Quick Payment all sounds really good but there's other uses, tracking employees.

    This article talks about the biometrics in hotels. For example, In China, there is facial recognition to check into the hotel. Facial recognition can also be used as a "room key" as well.

    Technology and Event Management
  •  
    As the hospitality industry embraces the need to optimize performance with technology, it, therefore, assigns technology a significant role in its productivity.
