"Company security services note that the activity of external attackers (hackers, fraudsters, etc.) has remained at about the same level as before, but the threat from insider employees has grown significantly. Worried about their own future in the company, employees begin to copy information, even if they are not threatened with layoffs. Moreover, people often have no idea how this information can be used, what benefits it can bring, or how it can help them find a job. The problem is that even without malicious intent, information can be compromised and fall into the hands of competitors."


Russia ranks fourth in terms of the number of information list of bahrain cell phone numbers leaks. The top three are the United States, Great Britain, and Canada. In 2015, there were 49 public
incidents of confidential data leaks in the country. It is worth noting that analysts
recorded only those cases that were made public. For example, the United States, the undisputed
leader in the rating (71.9% of all registered cases), combines strict
legislation in the field of personal data protection and a serious attitude towards
this by the subjects themselves. Because of this, many incidents become known to the general public. At the same time, the
United States is highly active in cybercriminal groups interested in
obtaining data.

The specificity of Russia,
on the contrary, consists of a low level of culture in relation to confidential data,
both personal and corporate.

Exactly the same negligence is characteristic of the behavior of employees in the corporate environment.
<p>Most leaks recorded in Russia are accidental or negligent. The share of targeted leaks in Russia is lower than the world average. Also, in Russia, there are no consequences even in the case of large, high-profile information leaks. Here it is appropriate to mention again the low level of culture in the field of cybersecurity. Companies try in every possible way to hush up such cases or, excuse the slang, "shift the blame", shift the blame to external factors. But the citizens themselves, who have suffered from leaks of personal data, calmly let such cases go"
