Why Data Breaches Are So Dangerous
A data breach occurs when unauthorized individuals gain access to confidential information stored by a company or organization. This information often includes:
- Social Security numbers
- Bank account and credit card details
- Health insurance information
- Driver’s license numbers
- Login credentials
- Email addresses and home addresses
Hackers use this data for identity theft, tax fraud, and other criminal activities. According to cybersecurity reports, a hacking attempt occurs every 39 seconds, and 1 in 3 Americans is affected by a data breach each year.
Legal Protections for Consumers
Companies are legally obligated to safeguard your personal information. When they fail, they can face lawsuits under state and federal privacy laws. For example, the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) grants residents rights such as:
- Knowing what personal data is collected
- Requesting deletion of personal data
- Opting out of data sales
- Correcting inaccurate information
If your data has been compromised, Emery | Reddy, PC can help you leverage these protections and pursue compensation.
