A study conducted by Imperva, the leader in data security, has revealed that organisations in the UK have not changed their attitudes to the threat of insider breaches despite the lessons of Wikileaks. In its survey amongst IT security professionals 86% could not categorically state that they knew how many sensitive files their organisation had - only 41% had an idea where sensitive files were stored on their networks while 18% admitted they didn’t know. In fact, less than half (43%) knew which users had access to sensitive files while 32% confessed that their organisation had lost data as a result of people abusing file access rights.
