 What is Sensitive Data Exposure

• When a user enters in any

website, they do have trust on
that website that they will not
harm their information and
sensitive. But the breaches of
data occur time to time and
results in data breaches
What is Sensitive Data Exposure
 What is Sensitive Data Exposure

• With the excess applications

of web existing today, the
susceptibility and exposure of
the sensitive data of user is
increased. Hackers and
attackers do have the
advantage of insufficient
security, processed,
transmitted and the data
stored.
 Why data needs to be protected

• On one ever wants to share their

data, and data are always kept to
secure in order to protect them
from hackers.
• Hackers do attack for
blackmailing in order to get
money and made the company
financial 0 for either personal
grudge.
 How the Data is Exposed Online

•Intrusion
Attackers may snip or adapt such
inadequately secured data to demeanor
fraud of credit card, identity burglary, or
other corruptions.
How the Data is Exposed Online
Example
How the Data is Exposed Online
• Phishing
This is basically direct attack on clients
rather than on companies.
Statistical Data
 Internal and External Attacks

• A dissatisfied employee has

more access to threat the
company’s personal
information than any stranger
as the employee already have
entree to the information of
company’s personal and
sensitive data and have the
control to destroy or blackmail
the company.
 MITM (Man in the Middle)

A man in the middle (MITM)

attack is an over-all tenure used
for when a criminal place
himself in a chat between a user
and an application The main aim
of an attack is to snip personal
and sensitive information, such
as credentials of login, details of
account and credit card
numbers.
 HOW TO PREVENT SENSITIVE DATA EXPOSURE

• Define approachability and encode

the data.
 HOW TO PREVENT SENSITIVE DATA EXPOSURE

• Authenticating and Securing

gateways.
 HOW TO PREVENT SENSITIVE DATA EXPOSURE

• Prevention from the attacks on

password.
 HOW TO PREVENT SENSITIVE DATA EXPOSURE

• Conduction of regular
assessment of risk, checking
security time to time.
 HOW TO PREVENT SENSITIVE DATA EXPOSURE

• Always have a backup plan
