Is your company is threatened by Data Leak?

Businesses of all sizes and in all corners of the world are daily facing serious security threats - data leak incidents. Blueprints, financial analyses, future investments and project plans are often targeted by external attackers, but can also fall prey to negligence and malicious intentions of your employees.

Do you want to know how much your company risks? Take the following test and get ready to eliminate security threats to your company.

In which region do you carry out business?

According to research projects of the Ponemon Institute and Proofpoint Inc., the extent of monetary losses depends heavily on the region in which a company operates. The biggest losses have been recorded in the USA and Germany.

In which industry do you operate?

Some industries are more vulnerable to data breach than other. According to a study conducted by KPMG in 2010, companies in financial services and public sector are most likely to experience a data leak incident. Moreover, a research by the Ponemon Institute shows that with each industry, the extent of financial losses caused by such incidents varies. The biggest losses have been recorded in the pharmaceutical industry, i.e. in those companies which engage in research and production of pharmaceutical drugs.

How many employees do you have?

The more employees a company has, the bigger the threat. This was proved in a research carried out by the Ponemon Institute in 2010.

Do you outsource data processing?

As the Ponemon Institute research proves, data outsourcing not only makes the financial losses caused by a data leak greater, but it also increases the likelihood of such a data leak incident.

YesNo

Have you ever lost any data?

In 2009, the Ponemon Institute conducted another study which shows that businesses that have not yet experienced a data leak are much more vulnerable to it. In addition, these firms also end up losing about 10% more financial resources than companies which have already sustained a leak.

YesNo

Have you deployed any automated procedures to gather information and produce reports?

According to a study carried out by IT Policy Compliance Group, companies who deploy automated procedures to gather information and produce reports are much less likely to experience a data leak incident. On average, companies without such system encounter data leaks 20%% more often than companies with automated procedures in place.

YesNo

Do you use any portable storage devices (laptops, flash drives)?

Research projects of both KPMG and the Ponemon Institute show that portable media, laptops and other mobile devices present the main cause of data leaks. And the role they play in data breach incidents gains in importance with every year.

YesNo

Do you have a CISO (or a similar position) in your company?

CISO means Chief information security officer. As the results of a study conducted by the Ponemon Institute indicate, the absence of an IT expert increases the company vulnerability to a data leak incident. Businesses which had a CISO solved such incidents incurring only 60%% of costs compared to companies with no IT expert.

YesNo

How many people entrust you their personal data?

The more personal records a company processes, the bigger are the monetary losses caused by a data leak.
