Cybersecurity: The Largest Data Breaches in U.S. History

Look at the trends over time.

While most of the news today is about the 2020 election and the coronavirus, in any other year cybersecurity could be topping the charts. 

See this brief article, "The Largest Data Breaches in U.S. History."

The trends and the statistics are clear. No one is safe from cyberattacks and it would behoove all of us to strengthen our passwords, use two-factor authentication (as discussed in this recent Disaster Zone Podcast: "Cybersecurity in a Pandemic") and start buckling up our digital seatbelts for cybersecurity incidents that can come at any time.
