With thanks to Lewis Morgan, blogger in residence at IT Governance, for putting together a list of breaches in 2016 that he was aware of. Notable by it's absence is the alleged hack of the US Elections which was possibly the Russians, or possibly the Democrats or possibly Elvis Presley from beyond the grave.
In any event it certainly shows that the hackers look to have the upper hand at the moment.
