What to do now
What can we learn from this breach?
Breaches like this offer valuable lessons for the entire industry. Some security practices that help protect data at scale include: encrypting sensitive personal data at rest with properly managed encryption keys; segmenting and isolating databases so that a single breach doesn't expose all records; conducting regular security audits and penetration testing; implementing real-time intrusion detection and incident response plans. Information security is an ongoing process, and each incident reinforces the importance of investing in data protection.
