Data breaches have increasingly become one of the most alarming threats to both individuals and organizations, posing significant risks to privacy, security, and financial well-being. Sensitive personal and health information, including Social Security numbers, medical records, financial data, and login credentials, is often stored electronically, making it a prime target for hackers and cybercriminals. These cyberattacks lead to identity theft, fraudulent transactions,  unauthorized access to confidential systems,  and a whole host of other problems that come with devastating consequences for victims.
