The Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas said Monday that customer payment-card data was accessed after malware was placed on the resort's payment-card system, becoming the latest hotel to report such a breach.

The company said the card-scraping malware identified data including cardholder name, card number, expiration date and internal verification code, in some cases. Hard Rock said that cards used at some restaurant and retail outlets between Oct. 27 and March 21 could have been impacted. The number of potential cards impacted wasn't immediately disclosed.

In the past year, Hyatt Hotels Inc., Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide Inc. and Hilton Worldwide Holdings Inc. all reported data breaches of their credit and debit-card processing systems.

The rock 'n' roll-themed casino said the unauthorized intrusions were identified in May after it received reports of cards being used fraudulently.

Law-enforcement officials and payment card networks have been notified, and the company said it is working with cybersecurity firms to strengthen the security of its systems.
