What is considered confidential data?
Confidential data is any information that is not subject to disclosure. This includes commercial, official and other secrets.

For example, personal data of clients is confidential information, the safety of which is the responsibility of the business. This includes the customer base, description of production technologies and other information.

Even the terms of the contract with the counterparty, the price and the subject will be confidential information and may be a commercial secret in particular. But the terms of a public offer a priori cannot be confidential.


How often do information leaks occur?
Small and medium businesses (SMB) often put off issues related to information security. Managers think that SMBs are of no interest to hackers, according to the logic of "nothing to take - let large companies protect themselves, they definitely have something to steal." But large companies have already thought of everything. Their databases are much more difficult to hack, so hackers switch to small organizations and individual entrepreneurs.

This is confirmed by statistics from Kaspersky Lab - in 2023, the number of hacker attacks on SMEs increased fivefold, and the share in the total number reached 20%. And no one has cancelled out unscrupulous employees who can steal client databases or "leak" payment data.
