Corporate IT Security: Infinitely flexible – endlessly insecure?

In May 2011 the Japanese electronics firm Sony had to admit publicly that hackers had stolen the bank data of several tens of thousands of clients. A few days later, the mail-order company Neckermann also disclosed the theft of 1.2 million customer data items. These spectacular data thefts show that cybercriminals are increasingly targeting individual businesses.
