Most data leaks are sourced from Shadow IT or personal file storage, personal email, and personal chat apps. This type of leakage is what we test for on this site.

The other cause of large data breaches is ransomware and data stealing malware that executes as the user. The large majority of these threats come through fraudulent email. Test email fraud defenses at emailSpoofTest.com

Another is a direct attack on cloud apps or physical infrastructure. Direct attack is risky and difficult for an attacker and relatively rare.

By preventing your data from going to unknown destinations on the web you can  prevent shadow IT and data misuse. Use this site to test all of the different ways data can be leaked to an untrusted destination.

There are 2 major ways data is leaked;

1) Internal Theft (Users being users)

     a. Sending Data where it should not go

   b. Tricked into sending Data where it should not go

2) External theft (Bad people being bad)

     a. Attacking the user (see item 1)

     b. attacking infrastructure

As you can see by the above breakdown, data risk is mostly from users and sometimes "bad actor". The bottom line is; if you can prevent an "insider" from misusing the data then an attacker or malware will also be under the same data constraints
