Publisher's Synopsis
"On November 24, 2014, a disturbing image appeared on the screens of devices being used by Sony Pictures Entertainment employees to try to access their workplace network. It was a picture of a stylized, red-hued human skeleton reaching toward them. The expressive shaping of the sockets housing its sunken eyes, and the pointed teeth lining its open mouth, gave it a menacing appearance. Situated before the skeleton was a message stating that all of Sony's internal data had been stolen"
About this Book
This book addresses the risk of data breaches and identity theft in the workplace. Unfortunately, employees won't know their personal information has been comprised until they actually become victims of identity theft, and they usually don't know their employers are the source of the data breach. This book discusses the current inadequate methods of dealing with workplace data breaches, and analyzes proposals regarding data breaches, workers' compensation laws, and employer-provided health insurance.
