Sometimes the best way to solve a problem is to stop participating in it. Why do the security breaches matter so much in the first place?
If the risk is so high and the security so bad, stop using the technology for things that demand more than provided protection.
Otherwise it makes it sound as if we are being sold snake oil. (Hint it’s a stepped approach that starts with being disconnected to the internet.)
- ehnto 7y agoI wonder if the idea of storing large amounts of sensitive data for use in internet connected systems is even something we should be doing. With how complex system are now, it's almost inevitable something or someone will cause a breach, knowingly or not. It probably doesn't work in many countries due to "Know Your Customer" style laws, but in my systems I throw away all but absolutely required data as I just don't want the liability. Sometimes that means I just keep a username and password hash.
