*These are REAL data breach incidents found in online public records
Data breaches occur every day. While hacking incidents are the most recognizable and expensive cause of data loss, they are not the most common. It’s a startling fact – simple human error accounts for three out of four incidents.
- 40% of the data breach cases are from people making mistakes, such as losing laptops and flash drives.
- 36% are system glitches, such as software updates, which inadvertently expose sensitive private files.
- 24% are malicious and criminal attacks.
No matter the sophistication of the security system, there is little that can be done to eliminate the risk of human error. A common, accidental breach is a real business risk worth considering today.
