Title: Assignment 1 - Data Breaches
Course: KVCC BUS118 > Section: Assignments

Perform an Internet search looking for recent news articles in relation to business data breaches. A good starting point is to use the Privacy Rights Clear house database at Privacy Rights Data Breach located at www.privacyrights.org/data-breaches. Once you find a specific breach you are to dig further on that incident and answer the following questions:

Describe the incident -

Who is the business?

What are the details on the breach?

Who performed the breach and were they connected to the business in anyway?

Where did the breach occur?

What methods did the attackers use to access the data?

What was the result?

What are some of the things the breached business did correctly?

What are some of the things the breached business did incorrectly?

If you were in charge of the businesses information security what would you have done to prevent this breach?

In the same role if the same breach occurred what would you have done in response?

Notes on assignment - The assignment is designed to assess some of the topics covered in Chapter 1. Some of the topics that may come up might be advanced and will be covered further on so it is not expected of you to be able to go into detail on everything. You will however be assessed on the detail and insight you provide and the problem solving skills you apply in questions 2-5 which have no correct answers. There is no required format both in structure and file type. Please however type your answers and submit them to me here on blackboard.
