Important: 1234 EPRs to be automatically deleted by June 22
The idea of using employee profile records (EPRs) to gain unauthorized access into systems isn't new. Unfortunately, this tactic is on the rise.
To help protect customer information and create a more secure environment, Sabre will begin deleting the 1234 EPR accounts beginning on or about June 22. These EPRs, assigned for temporary use only, are easily guessed and pose a fraud risk to travel agencies.
Action required:
•If you have or are using a 1234 EPR, create a new EPR. Then delete the 1234 EPR.
•Do not create new 1234 EPRs.
Secure password management requires diligence in using a password that's difficult to guess, never sharing your password, never writing it down where others can find it, and promptly changing or re-creating your password if you suspect someone else knows it.
Make sure you know if someone else is trying to change your login information: use the Password Management Tool (PMT) to get notifications of password changes.
