28 Oct 2025 Marina Bay Sands Pte. Ltd.Marina Bay Sands: 315,000 SGD after configuration error in middleware migration SingaporeData breaches and data security €208,955

When API configurations were manually transferred to a new middleware platform (September 2022 to March 2023), a single employee in sole charge omitted an app identifier, so token verification did not apply to the web page of the ArtScience Friends museum programme for at least six months; an attacker exploited this in October 2023 and retrieved data on 665,495 members of the Sands Rewards Lifestyle loyalty programme, which was then offered for sale on the dark web. The Personal Data Protection Commission (PDPC, Singapore's data protection authority) held that the resort had negligently breached the Protection Obligation by relying on this one employee without independent checks or automation. It reduced the provisionally intended 450,000 SGD to 315,000 SGD after the company's representations; no directions were issued because remediation had already been carried out.

What organisations can take from it

Security-critical configuration steps when migrating large data sets must not depend on a single person without independent checks or automation.
