Calian Cyber Security Breach Report - Issue 15 Data Breaches in Online Education

In today's digital business environment, enhanced and holistic cyber security is essential. However, many companies continue to struggle with resilience, often experiencing breaches that lead to everything from compliance issues, to lost and stolen data and, ultimately, to brand damage and revenue loss. And though it is easy to read about these breaches, the causes and potential solutions are rarely identified.

It is for these reasons that Calian has created the Breach Report. Each month, we spotlight a particular type of company, the breach it has experienced, and what it could have done to mitigate risk against the specific type of cyber attack—all to create better insight for the general public and to educate people on proper cyber security best practices.

In this month's report, we spotlight a widespread attack that struck five e-learning websites around the world earlier this year.
