PrivacyRights.org hosts a database of publicly released data breaches, including the affected businesses, breach categories, and compromised data. Researchers can use these statistics to discover trends, such as the most popular methods of attack, such as phishing and hacking, or the industries that are most vulnerable. They can examine the efficiency of cybersecurity measures over time by examining breach instances and their data. Furthermore, researchers might look at regulatory compliance difficulties and customer hazards associated with data breaches. By identifying historical vulnerabilities and current threats, policymakers can gain valuable insights, improve security plans, and assist enterprises in mitigating future breaches.
