The authorities deliberately downplay the shocking reality of data breaches, with words like ‘isolated incident’ or ‘no personal details’ or whatever other phrases to keep the victims docile.
See article:
Government lies, MediSecure cyber attack "isolated"
As the governments,
corporations and banks force oops ‘entice’ shoppers/consumers the
serfs towards a cashless society, the stakes will be higher where the
victims now have a lot to lose are the people and not those in control of the
people.
A contributing factor to data breaches is something called ‘outsourcing’, which is all about denouncing responsibility/liability for said I.T services, like data storage.
Companies/corporations/governments then wash their hands of any incompetence, or consequences arising from data breaches.
A recent data breach at AT&T is deliberately downplayed by both the government and the company.
A recent article of the title, UNC5537 Targets Snowflake Customer Instances for Data Theft and Extortion outlines some major issues.
