The Biggest Data Breaches in History

Since 2010, data breaches have exposed over 38 billion records, according to the cybersecurity firm Risk Based Security.

That sounds like a lot — and it is. Consider this: There are roughly 327 million Americans, according to the latest Census estimate. That means the average person has had 116 of their accounts compromised over the past decade.

Several companies, such as 7-Eleven, WhatsApp and Fortnite, reported security flaws in the past year that could have exposed millions of customers’ data, but the extent of the accessed data was not reported.

Here’s a look at the data hacks that will go down in history as the biggest of the past decade.

Fact(s): When people realize that the PSN 2011 Hack was THE "wake up call" AND MUCH MORE (A COMPLETE NETWORK-TAKEOVER), these "lists" will become obsolete.

What about the recent supply chain attack on solar winds, they sell admin systems and stuff so that means some legit big numbers and a lot of Federal orgs were part of their systems ecosystem too.

If hackers want your information, they will get it. There’s no argument, if, buts, nothing.

I believe that the Utopia ecosystem has a great future. Absolute data anonymity and a new type of encryption make this project very popular and promising.
