Data Leakage Landscape: Where Data Leaks and How Next Generation Tools Apply |
|
|
Like the steady drip from a leaking faucet, everyday data leaks are making headlines more often than the nefarious attack scenarios around which organizations plan most, if not all, of their data leakage prevention methods. In this paper, we map these leakage points with regulations and best practices. Protection mechanisms can be simplified by breaking them into five major categories: classic malware protections to prevent system infections, enforceable access controls, encryption, filtering for data sensitive data types being sent out of the organization, and education.

What happens if a freelancer working for the outsourced partner has the brilliant idea of leaking critical company data to the competition?

Published Date: May 06, 2009 |
|

Published Date: Apr 14, 2008 |

Password practices that improve security are by their nature burdensome to the user, resulting in passwords difficult to remember which are often changed about the same time they have finally become memorized.
