The Privacy Rights Clearinghouse maintains and updates a list of known breaches of data systems in the U.S. that involve personally identified information. This problem is large and growing and occupational health nurses must be constantly vigilant in protecting the records of workers.
The DataLossDB.org page includes a search engine
and news articles for the breaches listed below, and also provides an
open source database of its data breach records. It is a flat comma-separated
value file that can be imported into a database or spreadsheet program
for your own data analysis. Visit http://datalossdb.org/download.
