Data breaches are like sneaky thieves in the online world; they can steal personal information without anyone noticing until it’s too late. Imagine sitting at home, and someone secretly takes all your family’s private stuff—like phone numbers, addresses, or even bank account details—without even breaking a window. That’s kind of like a data breach, but on the internet.
Surprisingly, in the last year, there was a huge spike in these data breaches. A report showed that the number of warnings telling people their information might have been stolen went up by over 300%. To get the picture, if 419 million warnings were sent out in 2023, this past year it went up to over 1.7 billion. That’s a lot of personal information that could have been taken!
So why should this matter to you? Well, even if you’re just posting selfies or chatting with friends online, your information could still be taken. And if it gets into the wrong hands, it could cause problems, like someone stealing your identity or taking money from your bank account.
