The shocking truth behind data breaches

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.
