This Is the Reason Behind 70% Of Data Breaches
70% of the data breaches involve the negligence of a 3rd party. Let’s understand this with Target’s classic example. In 2013, they were using a contractor, Fazio, to do maintenance of their air conditioning systems. The hackers got into the Fazio systems and used it as a jumping pod to infiltrate and hack into Target’s infrastructure. Big companies like Audi and Volkswagen have also suffered such cyberattacks due to 3rd party negligence.
