WHY IT MATTERS: not very surprising that this exists. Snowden has shown that USA has been doing this to spy and thus expects China is doing the same in the 5G networking equipment. I say they probably all are doing it. One more argument in favor of strong encryption everywhere.

We've reached the halfway mark of 2020, so it's a good time to take a look at the biggest data breaches of the year so far. And to clarify, when we say "big," we're talking about the importance of the story as much as the number of records exposed. Each of the data breaches on this list has something to teach businesses and consumers about how sensitive data is most likely to be exposed in 2020. (Credential stuffing is a major player, but don't count out the good old-fashioned human error!). Let's talk about 11 major breaches: what data was compromised, how it was exposed, and what we can learn from the story.

The cybersecurity skills gap has been plaguing enterprises for years—but despite garnering much discussion and media coverage, little progress is being made.

State of Cybersecurity 2020 looks at questions such as:

  • How long does it take to fill a cybersecurity role with a qualified candidate?
  • What percentage of cybersecurity candidates are qualified for the role?
  • Is retention improving or worsening?
  • Which cybersecurity skills are in the highest demand?
  • Are HR teams informed partners in the search for qualified cybersecurity candidates?
  • Are cybersecurity teams becoming more gender-balanced, and are diversity programs doing enough to help?
  • What can companies do to staff up more quickly and find better-qualified candidates?

With everyone working from home now. Hackers have taken advantage of this and are attacking more computers. When was the last time you updated your anti-virus, security settings or even updated your computer?

Andrew Sanville's curator insight, March 31, 2020 5:23 PM
Many businesses are in danger of hackers since many people are forced to work from home. Most major companies have security firewalls and measures set in place in the local intranet to add some security. Many peoples home office commuter does not provide the necessary protection from these threats. The information that is being accessed can vary greatly in its importance and sensitivity. Hackers know this and businesses that take payment over the internet are left vulnerable to attack and can potentially leave their customers as a victim.
