In Part I of this two-podcast series, Bryan Sartin provides a general overview of the 2008 Data Breach Investigations Report and describes the methodology used to compile the findings of this ground-breaking analytical report. Spanning four years and more than 500 forensic investigations involving 230 million records, the report offers a wealth of information and insight into why and how data breaches occur.
In Part II of this podcast series on the Verizon Business 2008 Data Breach Investigations Report, Bryan Sartin summarizes key report findings and discusses actions enterprises can take to help prevent data breaches. Based on an analysis of hundreds of corporate data breaches, including three of the five largest ever reported, Verizon Business found that nine in 10 corporate data breaches could have been prevented had reasonable security measures been in place. The report also notes that 73 percent of breaches resulted from external sources versus 18 percent from insider threats. Sartin describes several basic actions including planning, implementation and monitoring that can reap big benefits when performed with continual diligence.
