Week 8: Dish Network confirms network outage was a cybersecurity breach

Dish Network, one of the largest TV providers in the United States, revealed that the "network outage" that happened on Tuesday was the result of a cybersecurity breach. This breach troubled the workers of Dish Network and its clients. 

The impact of this data breach also led to a drop in their stock value. Data were stolen and the company had to reach out to professionals for help. The trespassing happened on February 23rd through an internal outage. While the company encounters network servers and IT telephony problems, customers also couldn't log into their accounts.  

The impact of this cybersecurity breach is unexpected because the whole company network went through an outage, and even though it has been almost a week, the company is still trying to recover from the situation. Unfortunately, such a breach couldn't go unnoticed because of the size of the company.
