Concerns About Data Breach
Digital data is a staple in all industries nowadays. As such, when a data breach occurs massive repercussions happen. The global system is thrown in a disarray in terms of security and stability. Huge data breaches affect millions of people from all over the world. For this reason a lot of prominent security and tech companies are doing intensive research. They are looking for ways on how they can protect the identities and personal information of their subscribers for safety reasons and peace of mind.
The World’s Reaction Regarding Data Security Breaches
Naturally, people get concerned when their private and confidential information are hacked by malicious individuals. There have been instances in history where multinational companies get hacked and all their digital data are stolen by non-authorized entities. These confidential information get sold for a price on black market platforms such as the Dark Web; people are afraid of what may happen when these information are used for personal gain.
Even industry leaders are worried about their subscriber’s information falling into the wrong hands. The problem with data breaches is that it affects both digital and physical aspects of an organization, most notably their security and safety, and even ownership in some cases.
The government has issued statements and reports that hacking is on the rise. The Federal Bureau of Investigation mentioned that cyber attackers are now increasing their efforts and targeting sensitive information located on data servers across the world. Serious security breaches can lead to dire consequences, including societal disorder and even the triggering of World War III.
Online Fraud Is On The Rise
Since 2013 there have been around 9 billion data stolen by hackers. Approximately 96 percent of these data are usable. In 2017 alone, 2 billions records have been stolen from the government database, alongside security breaches from industries such as health care, education and technology. Without stronger and better security measures, these figures will only rise each year.
What’s more, there’s a growing number of people who fall victim to cyber theft. The trend continues to increase by approximately 14 percent every 3 years, with the rate rising each year. In a recent report, 75% of companies have admitted to the fact that they were victims of a data breach, with 69% of the victims suffering significant financial losses after the incident. Individuals who have made online transactions are more prone to losses as compared to those who don’t. Finding a trustworthy company who’s willing to protect their consumer’s private data is becoming a more difficult affair nowadays.
DIW token seeks to address the growing concerns regarding online security by offering a fully transparent global market that has a secure transaction system in place.
The Growth Of Cryptocurrency
In just 12 months’ time, cryptocurrencies in general have seen a massive increase of around 1,700 percent. It has long since passed the $600 billion threshold. The only notable downside is that cryptocurrencies haven’t reached widespread use yet; token holders use crypto to buy online goods and services. Crypto still has a long way to go to becoming accepted as a world-wide currency that can be used in daily transactions.
