Agree that there are going to be way more data leaks. What we’ve witnessed is small fry to date.
If you’re in a company you should be pushing to process less today, in order to have longevity tomorrow. I discussed the same conclusion in #441238. You nailed it here 👇
Makes me think, a directory that names and shames these vendors across all products & verticals would be useful. Sure, any company can appear in that list these days, given the state of passwords & poor security practices alone.
Though I discovered a closed community-based social network last week that leaves their API data completely accessible & unencrypted to anyone that wishes to snoop, without any keys required. The mind boggles sometimes at the lack of shits given by companies. And by staff on permanent payroll.

I mean at this point it might be easier to just list the Fortune 500. But in the context of this breach I'm not aware of a telcom that hasn't had a breach. Many have had multiple. Like bitcoin, the rugging will continue until morale improves.
