BREAKING DATA NEWS ALERT - Even my cab ride is not safe!!

I get in a smelly cab that I had to hail down while standing in this bone chilling weather, then I come to find out that when I paid someone stole my CC info. Is nothing safe anymore? This to me is low really low .......... making me smell like pine for an hour after the ride and stealing my CC info as well.

BREAKING DATA NEWS ALERT - Cyber Liability Insurance or Encryption?

When I buy Insurance for my car it covers me for all types of accidents that I may have no control over. But when you buy Cyber Liability Insurance what are you really insuring? Your IT groups inability to secure your data - your lack of data security policies for your employees or maybe its both. We have compliance laws in place to safe guard companies that are doing the right thing, so just be compliant and when a breach happens you wont need to tell anyone and you wont loose 40% of you revenues like Target.

Gambling with your info - Casino Hack

When I go to a Casino I plan to lose some money have a great time, if I win some money its a bonus. But when I come to find out that I not only lost money but I lost my SS# and DL# and maybe even more info, that was not what I was planing on when I visit the Casino.

BREAKING DATA NEWS ALERT - You can't just sweep the Breach under the table

Just when you think the breach that happened to you 2 years ago is over and done with, it comes back to bite you. That is exactly with Kaiser is thinking right about now, if they had secured the data in the first they wouldn't have cared who had the hard drive and what they did with it.

BREAKING DATA NEWS ALERT - New disease - Victim's Fatigue

NEW OUTBREAK!!  Victim's Fatigue
Symptoms of this over confident disease - Once the attack has happened the company begins to build its defenses to block other attackers coming in the same way. This is an effective defense and will stop other attacks from happening, BUT this is a relentless disease and will always come back.
What happens next is the down fall of most companies. They get over confident and start to drop their guards, they reduce the number of  employees that were in the defensive positions, and they find that they will be back in the same position all over again.
