Data Thieves Are Among Us – Businesses Beware

In 2008, Verizon Business investigated breaches in which a staggering 285 million data records were compromised. That’s more than the last four years combined. And of the breaches we investigated, 91 percent of all compromised records were linked to organized crime. These stats are from the 2009 Verizon Business Data Breach Investigations Report – a must-read for anyone responsible for enterprise security.

The bad guys are looking to exploit your data. These days they’re using more sophisticated, targeted tactics to get it. Lax security anywhere along your extended enterprise - even partners and third-party vendors – can make you vulnerable to a breach.
