Voltage Security Introduces Data Breach Index

Voltage Security has introduced the Voltage Data Breach Index, a single at-a-glance view into the state of national and global data breaches.

According to Voltage, "the visual map brings data breach reporting to life, summarizing historical and real-time breaches, size and scope, types of records, regions affected, industry and more. Perhaps most interesting is that patterns in the data enable the creation of a predictive data breach model. This model predicts, for example, that 14 data breaches will, over the next year, each expose 1,000,000 or more records to potential use by criminals. And, at least one breach of over 10,000,000 records will affect nearly 5 percent of the U.S. population." A white paper is also available.
