It is explained that<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>someone or someone&#8217;s access to the companies servers client information without<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>authorization, and also stated what the recommendations were for the member to do to<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>further protect its information, is very much the topic of the letter. We can determine how<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>economic and social science concepts might relate to the scenario being described,<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>even though the letter doesn&#8217;t specifically address them directly. Economic because it<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>deals with money, and social because someone did it, the reason is irrelevant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>1- Economic Theories<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>-Tragedy of Commons<\/strong>: The idea about the theory is an occurrence in society where<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>people believe that &#8220;someone else&#8221; should be in charge of a certain problem rather than<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>them and because they lack the knowledge about the issue. In relation to the letter, the<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>company did not know, first because it is run by a third company, and second it is that it<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>is not their problem because they are not directly involved with the platform servers that<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>experience the intrusion. To further break it down, the information is stored in shared<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>platforms which caused the hack in the first place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>&#8211; Laisseez-faire Capitalism theory<\/strong>: The idea about the theory is that a system of<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>economics in which the government makes little economic interventions and lets private<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>economic choices and free markets determine results. This letter is intimately related to<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>the Laissez-faire economic theory because the government did not step in until the<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>corporation requested assistance in defending the inalienable rights of its citizens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These people are the clients whose private data was compromised in the breach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>2- Social Science theories<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>&#8211; Social Trust: <\/strong>The idea which is fundamental to social science theory, describes how<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>much people trust and believe that other members of their society are trustworthy. In<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>regards to the letter, the shopper trusted the website when it purchased what he<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>needed, there was no concern that any of its information was gonna get stolen, the<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>letter does not state that the person&#8217;s information was stolen either, was just a<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>notification as a heads up because they did have his\/her payment card information on<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>file.<strong>&#8211; Functionalism<\/strong>: According to this viewpoint, society is a system of interdependent<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>pieces that cooperate to uphold stability and order. It highlights the roles that many<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>social structures and customs play in society, such as the dissemination of values and<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>knowledge through education. Even do a crime was committed, the interconnectedness<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>of the companies involved are trying to do a right and correct the issue, by notifying the<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>member, he\/she can now use change his credit cards so it won&#8217;t become a victim,<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>because we don&#8217;t know for sure if the shopper was a victim, they were just being<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>notified of the data breach of the company. There are many interconnected pieces: the<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>main company, the third-party company managing the sales and payments, law<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>enforcement, the cybersecurity firm fixing the malware, CA Office of privacy protection<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>and whatever organizations the member is willing to get involved like his bank<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>institutions or FBI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By taking this action, the business hopes to restore the customer&#8217;s faith while also<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>reducing anxiety, stress, and possible harm to the business or website as a result of the<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>incident.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The notice is a notification of a data breach that happened to the company, and the shopper was getting notified that his purchase that he did online thru www.glasswasherparts.com, might have been compromised.
