In the digital world , stolen data isn't always as loud as ransomware attacks. Data Exfiltration, or data theft, is the act of illegally taking information and exporting it without the owner's consent.
The danger is that the victim hardly notices because the data remains intact in the system. Hackers can install malware on computers, phones or exploit compromised accounts to download data.
For individuals, the consequences can include loss of privacy, blackmail, or impersonation. For businesses, the damage is even more severe when trade secrets and customer information are leaked. Data Exfiltration is difficult to detect and is only recognized when there is unusual network traffic or publicly leaked data.
Experts recommend monitoring systems, encrypting data, using two-factor authentication and raising user awareness for prevention. Dear readers, please watch more videos : Online kidnapping scam scenario "psychologically manipulates" many victims | VTV24
