Most of the time somebody bribes an employee for a password. Not really high tech at all.
Compartmentalising and need-to-know should limit Social hacks.

-this. Same with the Sony ‘hack’. If you part ways with an IT security employee on not so good terms, and you don’t change all the passwords, you have only yourself to blame. Of course Anthem has been known to cut corners on these things.. lost over 100k client records in both 2006 and 2008. then their security was deemed to be so terrible they were fined 1.7mil. Good places to cut costs - Security isn’t one of them.
nope this was a major date breach, yes i work for anthem
