Cyber Breaches and Data Loss – August 2019

By |2020-01-23T11:24:43-07:00August 14th, 2019|Cyber Security, Industry News, IT Support and Managed Services|Comments Off on Cyber Breaches and Data Loss – August 2019

Despite the prevalence of malicious cyber breaches, many organizations still fail to prioritize information security. Roughly 67 percent of SMBs experienced a cyberattack last year, but 60 percent of SMBs do not have a cyberattack prevention plan in place. Meanwhile, only 9 percent of SMBs rank cyber security as a top priority, while 18 percent rate it as their lowest priority. At Capital Network Solutions, we try to close this dangerous knowledge gap by collecting and compiling news stories about cyber breaches. In this week's roundup, we look at attacks on the LAPD, the FDNY, and the largest property and casualty insurer in the country.

We also provide an update on the 2017 Equifax security incident, which recently resulted in the biggest data breach fine of all time.
