Traditional Database Security Doesn’t Protect Data
It seems every week there’s a new data breach to read (or tweet) about. I recently discovered this lovely visualization of the growing amount of private data about people like you and me that is being exposed. You can filter and/or sort the data by industry sector, method of leak, and data sensitivity. It makes for a beautifully depressing coffee break.
After reading that, you might like to check to see if your details have been included in any of the data breaches listed on haveibeenpwned.com. Thanks to this site, and an alert I received from it following the 2016 LinkedIn breach, I now use a password manager — and I recommend you do the same.
