Was this always happening in this big scope? Leaks of games, data that is stolen, all these breaches in big companies. Feels like I see this everyday

      Still a very small subset of the data breaches out there.

      Think about it.

      Start with the total amount of data breaches. Narrow that further to the data beaches that someone noticed. Narrow that further to the data breaches they reported. Narrow further to the ones that you have heard about.

      What you know about it is a trailing indicator of the total incidences.

      We’ve gotten better at reporting them

      Close. There are more laws requiring reporting within certain timeframes. Few companies report when they are not forced to.
