G-71 Security

According to the latest DTEX Insider Risk Investigations Report 2024, the most popular channels for data leaks are printing (14%), screenshots or videos (32%), and personal email (42%).

Interestingly, the study also finds that 68% of insider risk events were proactively resolved through follow-up security awareness training and corporate policy changes. However, there is room to increase this number. It is crucial not to overlook the use of deterrent methods, relying solely on protection. For instance, protection methods are ineffective in cases where documents are photographed with a personal smartphone.

That's why it is important to create additional layers of security within the company, such as integrating invisible watermarks from G-71 Security. These can serve both as a deterrent and a detective solution, speeding up the investigation of even complex leak cases, whether the information leaks in the form of a screenshot, a photo, or a printed copy.

As insider-driven data breaches continue to escalate, posing severe financial and reputational risks to organizations, the need for advanced security measures is increasingly critical. G-71 Security's invisible watermarking technology addresses this urgent problem by embedding undetectable modifications, or invisible watermarks, into documents. These watermarks are not visible to the naked eye but allow for the tracking and identification of the source of a document leak. This technology serves as a crucial line of defense in both digital and printed formats, enhancing traditional security systems and providing a robust tool against the unauthorized dissemination of confidential information.

By integrating seamlessly with existing IT infrastructure, G-71’s invisible watermarking offers a proactive, scalable solution to a growing threat, making it an essential component of modern data security strategies.

According to the latest 2024 research from Code42 as part of their 2024 Data Exposure Report (DER), there was a 28% increase in insider-driven data exposure, loss, leak, and theft events compared to 2021. These events cost an average of $15 million each. Current systems, such as DLP, are no longer fully capable of handling all insiders. Therefore, the only solution for companies is to reconsider their current security approaches and shift their focus to a more holistic approach.

In light of this trend, we have decided to revisit our pricing model for the G-71 Security and set a fixed price without limitations, both in terms of the number of users and the number of investigations, so that more companies can take advantage of our invisible marking technology.

According to the most recent data from the 2023 Cost of Insider Risks Global Report by Ponemon, organizations, on average, allocated $2,437 per employee to their IT security budgets. However, a mere 8.2% of this budget, equivalent to just $200 per employee, was earmarked specifically for insider risk management programs and policies. What's even more disconcerting is that a substantial 58% of organizations reported that the current funding levels for insider risk management fell short of what was necessary. This glaring lack of financial support has likely forced many organizations into a reactive stance rather than a proactive one when it comes to safeguarding their data.

This is precisely why it's imperative to rethink our approach and prioritize proactive measures, particularly when it comes to securing sensitive data within documents, especially in the face of challenges like content copying and pasting. In a recent article, we've outlined a set of proactive actions that can be taken to enhance document security and prevent leaks. We won't delve into well-known methods like using complex passwords, implementing two-factor authentication, or conducting backup audits, as these are already familiar to everyone. Instead, we'll explore more impactful options: https://leaksid.com/how-to-protect-sensitive-data-in-documents-a-comprehensive-guide/
