This paper explores security and the value of everyday personal data. This paper will explore how major breaches can affect both companies and their clients. Corporate attitudes regarding the security of personal data will be discussed, what companies do with our data and lastly what strategies are employed by corporate organizations to maintain our data safe and secure.

As well, businesses need to employ excellent cyber security expertise , to ensure the information they are required to maintain does not fall into the wrong hands.
