Question 1. Review the Case Study of The Dark Side of the Internet in Kremling & Parker (2018).

"The 2016 Data Breach Investigations Report7 shows that more than 4.2 billion personal records were exposed in 2016. This constitutes an all-time high. The three biggest data breaches took place on Yahoo, MySpace, and FriendFinder networks with a total of 2.2 billion records exposed. With more than 1 billion compromised records, Yahoo currently holds the number-one spot in the history of data breaches. In September 2016, Yahoo announced that a "state-sponsored actor" stole the personal data of 500 million users in late 2014. Three months later, Yahoo announced another data breach of about 1 billion accounts dating back to August 2013. Yahoo has notified its users and urged them to create a new password and change security questions. The stolen data include names, account login credentials, email addresses, telephone numbers, birth dates, and other information users entered into their accounts" (Kremling & Parker, 2018, p3).
