2024 has been marked by some of the largest data breaches in history, affecting millions. AT&T revealed breaches impacting nearly all its 110 million customers, while Change Healthcare lost sensitive medical data on a substantial portion of Americans. A ransomware attack on Synnovis disrupted major hospitals in London, and Snowflake faced a massive data theft involving 560 million records from Ticketmaster. The fallout from these incidents poses serious risks to personal security and privacy, as criminals exploit the stolen data. The ongoing security crisis raises urgent questions about data protection measures across industries.
