2010 Data Breach Investigations Report

This is A study conducted by the Verizon Business RISK team in cooperation with the United States Secret Service. 


(Below is a Quote from this report:)

Executive Summary
In some ways, data breaches have a lot in common with fingerprints. Each is unique and we learn a great deal by analyzing the various patterns, lines, and contours that comprise each one. The main value of fingerprints, however, lies in their ability to identify a particular individual in particular circumstances. In this sense, studying them in bulk offers little additional benefit. On the other hand, the analysis of breaches in aggregate can be of great benefit; the more we study, the more prepared we are to stop them.
