Working in Japan security breaches can and do happen, but when they do the government has the ability to fine said corporation or even force them to cease offering services for a period of time.
I get the distinct impression that US companies largely face no consequences for data breaches and when they do it's fines that equate to less than a percent of their annual profits. Unless something changes there is very little incentive to start taking this stuff seriously.
