The third party then gained access to fewer than 200 online customer bank accounts, had access to personal information in those accounts, and then fraudulently obtained an amount of less than $1 million from those accounts.”

How To Protect Your Data From Accidental Breaches

Although we found quite a few stories involving criminal hacking, most tech leaders are more concerned about inadvertent and negligent data breaches than malicious ones, according to a recent Pulse survey. 

We also find this to be true with our work with customers at Nira. Most employees are not malicious threats or “out to get” their companies. Many document leaks are actually a result of accidental misconfigurations or expired third-party access that hasn’t been cleaned up. It’s why we created a tool that allows IT teams to easily identify access risks so data breaches become visible within 48 hours or less. Our mission is to make collaboration safe and secure for everyone.
