The Equifax Data Breach Case Study

This case engages with cybersecurity ethics, risk management, and corporate accountability. It highlights the consequences of weak security practices and the importance of proactive cybersecurity measures, making it essential for understanding how breaches occur and how they can be prevented.

When it comes to my career path in cybersecurity, especially in risk management, compliance, and security operations, analyzing breaches like Equifax’s will help me to apply lessons to safeguard sensitive data. Handling consumer data will be important for me to understand and implement so that I can have a better chance for employers looking for professionals who understand how regulatory frameworks (like GDPR and CCPA) affect cybersecurity policies.
