Privacy breach could harm a company a lot. Japan Network Security Association reported that, in 2007, total of 30 million personal information records are breached and estimated 22 billion dollars for damage/compensation in Japan. Most of these incidents caused by employees taking out the data, but there are some cases caused by sloppy web app. (I could find only Japanese version of the report: http://www.jnsa.org/result/2007/pol/incident/index.html http://www.jnsa.org/result/2007/pol/incident/index.html )
