Data Breach QuickView Released – First Nine Months Of 2014

Posted on November 19, 2014 by Dissent

RiskBased Security reports:

We have been so busy here at Risk Based Security recently that we neglected to release our latest Data Breach QuickView report to the public last month!  The report already shows that 2014 is the highest year ever for exposed records.  The 1,922 incidents reported during the first nine months of 2014 exposed over 904 million records.  While 60.2% of breaches exposed only between 1 and 1,000 records, twenty breaches exposed one million or more records with four finding a place on the Top 10 All Time Breach List.

About the Data Breach QuickView Report

The Data Breach QuickView report is intended to be an executive level summary of the key findings from RBS’ analysis of 2014’s data breach incidents. Contact Risk Based Security for your customized analysis of the 2014 data breaches.
