That personal document could be life and death for some people. How do you determine what is the value of data being hacked. E.g. For a hospital if patient data is hacked it could mean life and death situation.
- cookie_monsta 7y agoI think the question then becomes if it's a life or death document why would you only have one copy and store it in a relatively insecure space?
- manfredo 7y agoNobody's life is ended by the leak or destruction of any document. How does a hospital patient record getting leaked or destroyed kill anyone? A leak means private data is being divulged and that's not good but it's nowhere remotely close to murder. Deleting medical data means that the doctors need to get that data from the patient redundantly, which causes a drain on hospital resources but again it's not remotely close to murder. If, say, the mafia threatens to assassinate someone if a document is leaked and a hacker obtains and leaks it the hacker still didn't kill anyone - the hitman sent by th mafia is the killer. And regardless that this kind of situation seems very far fetched.
