Disturbing data breach headlines continue to grow

We’ve seen a recent spate of disheartening reports about data breaches. While data breaches are now part of society’s “new normal,” the number and magnitude of recent breaches does stand out: — “MC2 Data, owner of multiple background check sites, left 2.2 terabytes of confidential information exposed! … 100 million Americans affected.” 9/24/24 — “Nearly 1 million Medicare beneficiaries face data breach.” 9/10/24 — “1.7 million people hit in massive credit card data breach.” 9/9/24 — “Public school cancels classes due to cyberattack.” 9/9/24 “Car rental giant Avis discloses cyber intrusion.” 9/7/24 — “Leaked Disney data reveals financial and strategy secrets.” 9/6/24 — “Dick’s Sporting Goods hit by cyberattack.” 8/29/24 — “National Public Data confirms massive data breach … 2.9 billion (yes, billion!) records exposed.” 8/22/24 That’s just a small sample. Whether you’re someone who stays offline, carefully protecting your data, or you leave your digital footprint everywhere, everyone is vulnerable to the effects of their personal information getting loose – even when they’re not to blame. Protecting yourself is important, whether your name is on the list of affected consumers or not.
