1. Data Security Problems

2. iPad Users’ Personal Data Leaked About 114,000 iPad users had their personal information stolen by a AT&T’s network flaw. The breach lead to the exposure of iPad users e-mail addresses. Some of the people who got their information stolen were high class businessmen , Politicians and US military officials. The hackers go by the name of Goatse Security. They obtained the iPad users information by getting numbers that are used to identify a subscriber on AT&T’s network. These numbers are known as ICC IDS, which stands for integrated circuit card identifier.

3. Causes and Effects I think that this problem occurred when a wireless connection was left unprotected and was able to be hacked and the ICC IDS’s stolen for the connection. The victims were all of the iPad users who had their e-mails addresses stolen. The organisation involved was the 3G network provider, AT&T. The perpetrator was the hackers who go by the name of Goatse Security.

4. Personal Info Personal information needs to be protected so that people don't get information stolen . If they got information stolen it would mean that they could lose money if bank info was stolen or people could hack into their e-mail and send thing to the wrong sorts of people.
