The travel industry faces growing pressure from organised fraud groups who target customers, booking platforms and staff. Fraud attempts across travel companies have risen across Europe over the past two years. Attackers target travellers during peak seasons. They target booking systems that run at high volumes. They target staff who face constant contact with customers. These threats now sit at the centre of industry discussions. This blog supports travel operators, hotel chains, booking firms, transport companies, students and IT professionals who want insight and practical actions that strengthen defence. Booking fraud appears when criminals trick travellers into paying for bookings that do not exist. Phishing appears when criminals send messages that copy trusted brands in order to steal details. A simple example is an email that looks like it came from a well known booking site. The email claims a reservation needs confirmation. The traveller clicks the link. The link leads to a fake login page. Criminals capture details. They use those details to enter real accounts. They take payments. They change reservations. They create loss and stress. The threat matters today because more people book travel online. Attackers know this. Attackers build convincing websites. Attackers create false advertisements. Attackers target call centres. Travel companies store payment data. Travel companies process identity documents. Attackers look for weak links across these systems. The rise in digital tools across airports, hotels and booking firms creates more targets for experienced fraud groups. You need strong awareness to avoid damage.

LegalTech platforms face rising threats from advanced cyber groups who target legal data, client records and case information. Attackers focus on legal service providers because legal data holds high value. Attackers search for weak access controls, outdated systems and unprotected cloud platforms. Legal firms and technology providers now depend on digital workflows. This increases pressure from attackers who want to steal data or disrupt operations. This blog supports legal professionals, platform developers, students in technology and IT staff who want a clear view of the risks and the steps needed for a strong defence. LegalTech refers to digital tools that support legal work. These include document management platforms, digital case files, client portals, identity verification tools and automated workflow systems. A simple example appears when a solicitor uploads sensitive documents to a cloud platform that tracks case progress. The platform stores data, manages tasks and sends reminders. This workflow simplifies work. It also introduces risk. If attackers enter the platform through weak credentials, they gain access to client evidence, contracts, court papers and identity records. This risk has grown as more legal work shifts online. LegalTech platforms must respond with strong cyber defences to protect trust and service quality.
