Why you should never take a photo of your boarding pass
Amir Sachs, founder of Blue Light IT, highlights the critical security risks of sharing boarding pass photos online. Even though these passes might seem harmless, they contain sensitive data that can be exploited by hackers. From frequent flyer numbers to passenger name records, a simple snapshot can open the door to identity theft and unauthorized access to your accounts.
Sachs emphasizes the importance of protecting your information by avoiding social media posts of boarding passes and securely disposing of physical copies. He advises travelers to shred their boarding passes and be cautious with mobile versions to prevent potential breaches. For those who can’t resist sharing their travel excitement, editing out sensitive details is a must.
