Data Access Abuse
Brief
Data access abuse is when a user abnormally accesses sensitive corporate data or resources. This activity serves as a leading indicator of data leakage.
With the proliferation of various applications to collaborate across the business, employees have gained unprecedented access to sensitive data housed in file shares, content management systems, databases and more. According to industry research, in a study of several hundred organizations 17% of all sensitive files were accessible to every employee.
