Managers at businesses and organizations all over the United States collect and store information. It can be with tangible documents via filing cabinets, or digitally via networked servers. They may even rent "cloud" space to safeguard and keep vast volumes of personal information. Despite the growing occurrence of data breaches affecting private, public, and nonprofit organizations, the majority of organizations and businesses admit knowing too little concerning the consequences and risks of failing to sufficiently safeguard personal information collected from volunteers, employees, donors, and clients. The news has shown companies like Sony, Kmart, and Dairy Queen that have let leak sensitive information like credit card numbers and home addresses (MONEY.com, 2014). The question is should organizations and businesses like these be held liable for damages from the compromise of leaked sensitive data? The answer is yes.
People are convinced by businesses and organizations to hand over sensitive information. They put their trust in these companies and nonprofits with information that, if in the wrong hands could wreak havoc in their lives from identity fraud to credit score damage. It truly shows how much people believe in the organization to let go of such potentially damaging information. Therefore, when a company/organization has a hacking incident or accidentally leaks the private information, they should pay the consequences.
People often cite hackers as the culprits for leaked information. However, sometimes-private information can be leaked from inside sources. In a 2015 article, council workers and social workers have been found to leak sensitive information or reveal private information and evade punishment. Some examples of leaked personal information go as far as revealing personal information of children. "In one instance, a social worker left papers containing confidential records about children and information linked to sex offenders on a train, and in another, an unencrypted laptop containing the details of 200 schoolchildren was stolen" (Ward, 2015). Because few of them faced any real consequences for their actions and the act itself was not frowned upon, the instances of leaked personal information grew.
People must be held responsible for their actions. If they are not, it could prove disastrous to many people's lives. The...
