The replies to this post are almost universally depressing. Really? Reporting to the company is so obviously bad for the reporter in the USA? There is no protection from malicious prosecution just for 'reporting' a data breach. That's crazy. |

the typical cost of legal actions pursuant to a data breach are so low, it doesn't make dollars or sense to give a shit about customer infosec.
It's not like we don't have perfectly capable people, or that the companies in question don't care about information security in general. For example, it's exceedingly rare to see a data leak that makes individuals or institutions look bad from a PR standpoint (like Snowden).
But customer data? why bother? what, are they gonna slap us with a million dollar class action? I'm quaking so hard in my boots my multibillion market cap is gonna fall off.
