Apparently this is more common than you expect. A company I worked for initiated an overhaul of our IT security because the FBI turned up in the CEOs office and basically said "Now we've warned you, shareholders can sue you if you don't act on this". Or atleasts thats the story everyone in the company were told. It seems plausible, because I can't see any other reason why the CEO would deliberately set fire to the entire development team for no reason.
- nitwit005 7y agoI assume this is why the FBI is mentioned so often in these stories. A lot of companies probably keep hacking incidents quiet, but acknowledge it once the FBI is involved.
- pergadad 7y agoBingo! We're seeing a case of survivorship bias as we only hear about the cases companies are unable to hide any longer.
