Forrester Research will release a report on Database and Server Data Security, Q1 2009. The report describes how the risks of theft, corruption and abuse has made securing data stored on servers and in databases much harder. As part of the process of researching some of the business drivers for this report, I analyzed data from DataLossDB, a public database containing information on data loss events reported in the press and to governmental organizations. Hacking incidents, generally against SQL servers, were extremely effective, with an average of 200,000 records disclosed per incident.”]
