Is hacking on the rise?

Tuesday, June 21st, 2011

As I’ve been reading the technology sections of various online news sources lately, I’ve been coming across more and more stories of websites being hacked.

Some of the more recent attacks included the high profile breach of personal data from Sony, down to a less serious fake news story on the PBS news website, announcing Tupac was alive in New Zealand.

theage.com.au has an article exploring these in more depth, along with other breaches and there effect on those who were targeted.
