In March 2023, TechCorp Inc., a leading software development company, suffered a severe data breach. Malevolent actors managed to infiltrate the company's secure databases through an unpatched vulnerability in their network infrastructure. The hackers accessed sensitive customer data, including personal identification numbers, email addresses, and credit card information for over 10,000 customers. The breach was uncovered when customers reported unusual activity on their accounts, which prompted an internal investigation by TechCorp Inc. The incident has raised significant concerns over the company's cybersecurity protocols and the safety of consumer data, resulting in financial loss from remediation efforts and potential reputation damage.
