Australia recorded the highest number of data breach reports last year since monitoring began in 2018. The latest Notifiable Data Breaches Report found 69 per cent of those data breaches were due to malicious or criminal attacks, with 29 per cent derived from human error. Most personal information in the breaches was contact information, identity data, or financial or health information, which hackers could use to blackmail companies or impersonate individuals. Professor Toby Murray, from the School of Computing and Information Systems at the University of Melbourne, has advice for how to protect yourself from data breaches.
I read a piece recently that got me thinking that data breaches might be inevitable. Disclosure: This was written by Redgate, for whom I work, titled "Data breaches May Be Inevitable—Compliance Failures Don't Have to Be". It's based on our research with the State of Database Landscape survey as well as feedback and conversations with customers. The thing that caught my eye was the first part: data breaches may be inevitable. Do you think that's true? Are we doomed to lose data in our organizations, not as a possibility, but something that will happen at some unknown time in the future? Those of you who have suffered breaches might agree with this, but for those of you who haven't had to deal with that situation, are you resigned to it happening at some point?
