Identity Theft Expert; Data breaches get more costly

Identity Theft Speaker Robert Siciliano www.IDTheftSecurity.com Excellent article by Jaikumar Vijayan here; Data breaches continue to get more costly for businesses

Ponemon Institute LLC is all the buzz this week after publishing a study showing the cost of a data breach has risen significantly. The study points to companies being hesitant to invest in security for numerous reasons that all point to costs associated with the investments.

Any company not doing whatever it takes to make the necessary investments in security will eventually be outed by the criminal hacker. Its not a matter of if, but when.

Study after study points towards organized webmobs attacking every aspect of information security from Application develoment to the Wild Wild Web.

Here is a clip from a Fox News piece about a google bug hack.
