Breach & Data Security

Data Leak

A data leak is the unintentional exposure of sensitive, confidential, or protected information to unauthorized parties. Unlike breaches caused by external attacks, data leaks often result from misconfigurations, human error, or inadequate security controls. Examples include exposed databases, misconfigured cloud storage, and accidentally published documents containing sensitive information.
