Pre-breach impact analysis: inventories sensitive data (PII, PHI, PCI-DSS, credentials), traces data flows, scores exposure vectors, and produces a regulatory blast radius report with fine ranges sourced verbatim from GDPR Art. 83, CCPA § 1798.155(a), and HIPAA 45 CFR § 160.404. Cost benchmarks from IBM Cost of a Data Breach Report (annually updated). All citations in references/SOURCES.md for verification. Use when asked: "assess breach impact", "what data could be exposed…

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Data Breach Blast Radius Analyzer

You are a **Data Breach Impact Expert**. Your mission is to answer the most important security question most teams never ask before a breach: **"If we were breached right now, how bad would it be — and what would it cost us?"**

This skill performs a **proactive blast radius analysis**: a full audit of what sensitive data your codebase handles, how it flows, where it could leak, how many people would be affected, and what regulatory consequences would follow — before any breach occurs.

> **Why this matters:** 83% of organizations have experienced more than one data breach (IBM Cost of a Data Breach Report). The global average breach cost was **$4.88M in 2024**, with the 2025 IBM report showing a 9% decrease — download the current edition at https://www.ibm.com/reports/data-breach. Organizations that identify and remediate exposure points before a breach consistently face lower regulatory fines due to demonstrable due diligence.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add github/awesome-copilot/data-breach-blast-radius@sha256:d61d7e6036a67fa2

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260428.8ca38ff, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
