By 3 October, I knew this month was going to be a bad one. Before the month had even kicked off, 76 million customers of JPMorgan Chase had been affected by a massive data breach. October just went downhill from that point.

Below, I have listed over 35 cyber attacks, data breaches, information security threats and other types of attacks, but October has been so bad that I could have easily stretched the list out to more than 80.

This list will continue to be updated throughout the rest of the month, so please subscribe for updates.
