Is my Information really safe?

Research and review literature for companies that had data breaches, such as the US Government, Sony, Target, Anthem, etc.
Write a paper of approximately 750 words that addresses the following components:
• Many online retailers and services store your credit card and personal information. What steps should organizations take to protect your information? Is it a reasonable expectation that organizations have the infrastructure to protect the American consumer from foreign cyber-attacks?
• What is the true loss when customers leave because of hacking? (consider revenue, repetition, internal brain drain, etc.)
• Can extremely gifted hackers be used for “good” after they have been prosecuted (consider the story of Frank Abagnale)?
• Why do businesses and the U.S. government downplay the significance of a data breach? What can be gained from not being transparent with their customers and/or citizens?
Format your paper using the West Writing Style Handbook  guidelines.
