Information leak refers to the unintentional or unauthorized disclosure of sensitive or confidential information to individuals, entities, or systems not authorized to access or possess that information. It occurs when sensitive data or personal information is inadvertently exposed through human error, technical vulnerabilities, or malicious activities. Information leaks can have serious consequences, including privacy breaches, reputational damage, financial loss, and legal ramifications. Common examples of information leaks include accidental email forwarding, misaddressed documents, data breaches, and insider threats. Organizations must implement appropriate security measures and protocols to prevent information leaks and protect sensitive data from unauthorized access or disclosure.
