From Help Net Security:
Isle of Man taxpayers' info leaked due to email error
Email addresses of approximately 5000 customers of the Income Tax Division (ITD) of the Isle of Man - a self-governing British Crown dependency and a tax haven for the rich - have been leaked via email.
"The mistake happened when, as part of a programme to raise awareness of its new Twitter account, the Income Tax Division sent out ten batches of e-mails, of up to 500 in each batch, but in such a manner that recipients could see all the e-mail addresses in their individual batch," the ITD explained.
The purpose of this blog is to help small-medium businesses (SMB's) deal effectively with their unique cyber security needs. With over 15 years experience in IT and cyber security I will show SMB's how they can leverage their limited resources to develop effective cyber defenses to the most common threats using information security best practices and no/low cost tools.
