Is our data safe? How companies can avoid being hacked | SBS Insight

From the Optus data breach to the Medicare hack, Australian data is more vulnerable than ever. But what happens when you realise your privacy is being held at ransom? Can you even tell if you’re being hacked or if your data has been stolen? In 2020, Insight spoke to victims of hackers and the tech experts who can crack security systems to find out what we can do to protect ourselves.

Insight, hosted by Kumi Taguchi, is Australia's leading forum for powerful first-person stories offering a unique perspective on the way we live.
Insight first went to air in 1995 and has since been a mainstay of SBS current affairs programming. The team doesn't shy away from taboo topics: from polygamy, to brain implants, to the secrets revealed on the deathbed.
