Leakage of sensitive data represents a risk to organisations in terms of litigation, financial or commercial loss, reputational and regulatory risk and damage to customer relationships

Most organisations hold sensitive information related to their business, their customers and their staff. Information collected from offline, online and mobile channels and stored for further reference and access. When sensitive information is compromised fraud and criminality are never far away.

In order to secure data, companies need to know where the data is.  Data auditing systems can quickly find this information so that companies can react accordingly.
