Experts talk about the theft of confidential information through five channels of computers

In movies, stealing and stealing internal information in the office is no longer the main channel for information leaks. As more and more people use networks to transmit and exchange information data, including customer information, technical information, trade secrets, Enterprise Planning, and financial information, how to ensure that internal information can be securely transmitted during interaction has become a headache for Information directors of major enterprises. The root cause of information leakage is the unordered management and use of internal confidential information. While enjoying convenient interaction, your sensitive data may be flowing from your computer to the outside in the following five ways.

Of enterprises' internal data is unordered for storage

Electronic data interaction brings us convenience while bringing us new problems: According to the statistics of professional institutions, over of enterprises' internal sensitive information is unordered or illegally stored. It is understood that in many enterprises, in order to pursue the so-called convenience and efficiency, sensitive information is often stored or open at will. Sensitive information of an enterprise is generally stored on an enterprise's network server, employee's computer, or file server. Sensitive information includes but is not limited to: customer information, technical information, trade secrets, and enterprise planning, financial information. The consequence of unordered storage is unordered use, unordered transmission, and even information leakage.

Five channels for information leakage

Unordered management and use of internal confidential information is the root cause of information leakage. External attacks, internal personnel attacks, work errors, active or unintentional leaks have become the five major ways of information leakage. Among them, the loss caused by various leaks by internal personnel is the greatest. In addition, the active or unintentional leaks also cause great losses to enterprises.

Although most enterprises adopt a variety of methods and technologies to prevent such incidents, most solutions do not fundamentally solve such problems, confidential information of an enterprise is still stored and used randomly and unordered. The consequence is that we can easily obtain confidential information within the company. In short, what enterprises really need is a security solution with management ideas, which strictly distinguishes the data security level and strictly separates the storage areas of different levels of data.
