Topic: Troy Hunt - What I've Learned from 220 Million Breached Records

Description: We can learn a huge amount about security by reviewing the failures of those who have come before us. In maintaining the data breach notification service "Have I been pwned?", I've dealt with literally hundreds of millions of breached records over time and have seen some fascinating things. In this talk we'll look at the patterns organisations who suffered data breaches were using, the types of data that were exposed and the things they could have done to protect themselves from malicious actors.

Bio: I'm Troy Hunt, an Australian Microsoft Most Valuable Professional for Developer Security. I don't work for Microsoft, but they're kind enough to recognise my community contributions by way of their MVP program which I've been an awardee of since 2011.
