Critical data leak analysis in educational environment
The rapid growth of computer technologies has resulted in a corresponding increase in the creation of new loopholes in systems which eventually might result in data leak. Data leakage is an incident in which sensitive information is released to any unauthorized party intentionally or unintentionally...

The rapid growth of computer technologies has resulted in a corresponding increase in the creation of new loopholes in systems which eventually might result in data leak. Data leakage is an incident in which sensitive information is released to any unauthorized party intentionally or unintentionally. There is a large set of software available which can be used to prevent data leak, however they fail to cover all the channels of leakage involved. Many institutions specifically educational institutions are in possession of large amounts of personal data. Due to the sheer size of these institutions, securing each and every system is overlooked. Educational institutions need to implement higher levels of security practices in their systems to stop any attempts of users trying to access critical data intentionally.
