Nearly 1.4 billion records were compromised in 2016 as a result of roughly 1,800 data breaches, according to Gemalto’s latest Breach Level Index report.


The company said the number of compromised records increased by 86 percent compared to the previous year. The report also shows that more than 1,000 incidents, or 59 percent of the total, involved theft of identity information, while nearly 30 percent involved financial and account data.


Gemalto最新的Breach Level Index报告显示,2016年有近14亿数据记录被攻陷,相较2015年增长了86%。报告另外展示了超过1000次安全事故,其中59%都是身份信息窃取,30%是相关金融和帐号数据窃取。


Data collected by Gemalto shows that 68 percent of data breaches were the work of malicious external hackers, while 19 percent of incidents were classified as accidental leaks. Malicious insiders accounted for 9 percent of breaches.


数据还显示,68%的数据泄露是因为外部恶意攻击者,19%则是因为“意外泄露”,而另有9%是因为恶意的内部人员。


The most serious breaches mentioned in the report affected FriendFinder Networks (412 million records), the Philippines Commission on Elections (77 million records), DailyMotion (85 million records), Fling (40 million records), the Indian state of Kerala (34 million records), and Evony (33 million records).


The Yahoo breaches disclosed last year, which involved hundreds of millions of user records, were not taken into account due to the fact that the incidents occurred in 2013 and 2014. Based on the same logic, the Fling breach should have been excluded as well as it appears to have occurred in 2011.


Furthermore, the report also lists the “17” streaming app with 30 million records, but an analysis of the hackers’ claims showed that the actual number of compromised records was roughly 4 million.


According to Gemalto, the healthcare industry was hit the hardest in terms of the number of incidents, and accounted for more than a quarter of breaches. Other affected sectors are government (15%), retail (12%), financial services (12%), and technology (11%).


When it comes to the number of compromised records, the government and tech sectors take the lead with roughly 391 million records each.


从事故发生次数来看,医疗行业是数据泄露最严重的,占比超过1/4,其他行业占比排名依次是政府、零售、金融服务和技术。从泄露数量来看,政府和科技领域是最严重的。


As for the geographical distribution of affected organizations, 80 percent of the breaches catalogued by Gemalto affected the United States.




从地域分布来看,美国占泄漏数据的80%


The company said more than 7 billion records were lost or stolen since 2013, which means that, on average, more than 4.5 million records are compromised every day. Of all the incidents known to Gemalto, only 4 percent involved efficient encryption that made the exposed data useless.


Risk Based Security reported in January that the total number of records exposed in 2016 was 4.2 billion, but the company also included the Yahoo, MySpace and other incidents that took place in previous years.


自2013年以来,有超过70亿条记录丢失或被盗,这意味着平均每天有450多万条记录遭到盗取。在报告中提到的所有事件中,只有4%的数据被高效加密,使得暴露的数据无效。


风险安全报告显示,2016年暴露的记录总数为42亿,但也包括雅虎,MySpace等前几年发生的事件。
