The CVE (Common Vulnerabilities & Exposures) database includes over 59,000 known information security threats. While the techniques used to access your data or alter website code vary greatly, a security breach usually has one of these aims:

  2. Altering website code in order to change what users see
  3. Intercepting personal and sensitive data
