WOW! I wonder if such a list of breaches exists here in OZ! 

Still in context, I am surprised to see the ignorance that many of my
students have on viruses and their impact, given they (the students)
have grown up with this computer stuff. It makes me wonder at times with
their nonchalant attitudes if they really care about this type of
computer abuse/misuse.

I guess thats where we as educators come in, inform them of the facts,
educate them on the impact and persuade them not to further its cause.
(hows that for combining topic and course content..I amaze myself
sometimes!)

KB.

 

ps if anyone knows of an ozzie version of the list of breaches which is
readily accessible, can you post its address here, I reckon others would
be interested..I know I am.

 

Cheers..hIC!

Not sure if it's been mentioned before, but came across this huge list
of  reported data security breaches in the USA.
I wonder if there's such a list for incidents that have happened here?

Lots of other interesting case studies, links, examples etc.
