My email was found on 8 different data breaches. This isn't just my story...

Here's what's really concerning me recently how people normalized recording every call, every brainstorm, every confidential discussion creating massive digital footprints of sensitive conversations.

Crazy, so more data to be scrapped!

Other one, a staggering 16 billion passwords were recently exposed in what's being called a record-breaking breach.

People don't know the danger that this represent; More with AI entering the field. 

 

 

How to check if your email is on data breaches?

One popular website is https://haveibeenpwned.com

This site serves two primary purposes for me: firstly, it obviously provides a service to the public. Data breaches are rampant and many people don't appreciate the scale or frequency with which they occur. By aggregating the data here I hope that it not only helps victims learn of compromises of their accounts, but also highlights the severity of the risks of online attacks on today's internet.

Secondly, the site provided me with an excellent use case for putting a number of technologies through their paces and keeping my hands-on skills somewhat current. Projects like this are an excellent way of staying relevant as my day job increasingly focuses more on software management and less on actually building things (which I happen to love doing!) It's been an enormously fulfilling journey that I've invited others to join me on by way of often blogging in depth about the process, something I intend to keep up as the site inevitably evolves over time.
