From the latest blockbuster vulnerabilities to headline grabbing data breaches, Risk Based Security collects and aggregates threat intelligence so that you don't have to. We focus on vendor and product security, providing deep insight into third party risk through vulnerability analysis, breach research and vendor security scoring. Our channel includes quarterly reviews of our research reports and the occasional discussion of data breaches and vulnerabilities making news.

2020 has challenged the security community unlike any other year. There were 3,932 publicly reported breaches, compromising over 37 billion records, by far the most records exposed in a single year since 2005. Compared to 2019, the total number of records compromised increased by 141%.

Disruptions at certain governmental sources, delayed reporting, and declining news coverage have all contributed to fewer breaches coming to light in 2020, but that is only part of the story.

Join us as we present findings from our Year End Data Breach QuickView Report and explore these and more striking trends involving breaches, COVID, and ransomware.

Data Breach Trends: Ransomware Jumps by 100% and Records Exposed Hits 37 Billion

The number of records exposed in 2020 increased to a staggering 36 billion by the end of Q3. There were 2,935 publicly reported breaches in the first three quarters of 2020, with the three months of Q3 adding an additional 8.3 billion records to what was already the “worst year on record.”

Breach disclosures continue to be well below the high water mark established just last year despite other research indicating that the number of attacks are on the rise. How do we square these two competing views into the digital threat landscape? In this webinar we present findings from our latest Data Breach QuickView Report and explore factors that may be contributing to the decline in publicly reported breaches, including the impact of COVID on media coverage, and the latest ransomware trends.

Data Breach Trends: Records Exposed Reaches a Staggering 36 Billion

Attempts to influence elections are nothing new, but modern digital platforms open the door for meddling to be carried-out in real-time and at a much greater scale. Join leading cybersecurity specialists as they look at the rise of hacktivism, vulnerabilities in electronic voting machines (EVMs) and more.
