Data Breach: What Is It?
A data breach occurs when there is unauthorised access to sensitive information. This information can include personal data such as names, addresses, social security numbers, and credit card information. When a data breach occurs, the information can be stolen, deleted, or corrupted, significantly harming individuals and businesses.

Common Causes Of Data Breaches
There are various ways that data breaches can occur, including:
- 1. Human Error: Accidental data exposure due to human error is a leading cause of data breaches. It can include sending sensitive information to the wrong person, misconfiguring servers, and leaving sensitive documents in public places.
- 2. Malware and Cyber Attacks: viruses, worms, and Trojans can infect a system and cause data breaches. Cyberattacks such as hacking and phishing attacks are common ways data breaches occur.
- 3. Physical Theft: Physical theft of devices such as laptops, smartphones, and hard drives can lead to data breaches if the devices contain sensitive information.
