The Copenhagen-based Tivoli, one of the oldest and most popular amusement parks in Europe, has now joined the unfortunate online “rogues gallery” of major Danish companies whose customer data has been hacked from their websites.

Tivoli, the spiritual home of over 4 million thrill-seeking visitors, admitted that this popular website had been compromised when up to a thousand guests had their personal information — names, addresses, phone numbers, e-mail addresses, date of birth and information about guests’ previous purchases at Tivoli, even credit card information — stolen.

Jonas Buhl Gregersen, Tivoli’s director of IT and Business Development, deemed the hack “intelligent” rather than a classic “brute force attack”.
Despite the breach, Gregersen could provide no good explanation as to the motives of the attackers, only suggesting that hackers may have have been testing the security of the system, “curious” about what could be done.
