Data breaches have become common, ubiquitous almost. When we went to compile a list of the worst data breaches of the last year, we found some bogglingly high numbers of people affected – it seems like the chances of you becoming involved in a data breach became when and not if a long time ago.
It says something about this list that the top five are all in the multi-millions or billions of people affected. It’s become even more important to make sure that you have one of the best antivirus software suites set up on your PC (including a VPN of course), that you’re aware you can sign up for one of the best identity theft protection programs and that you know how to protect yourself against phishing and using multi-factor authentication.
