It’s human nature to be efficient to find the easiest and fastest way to accomplish a task – and that’s often at odds with what needs to be done to keep data and files secure. There are hundreds of productivity hack articles preaching efficiency as we all try to multitask ourselves to a certain risk. But when it comes to data security, shortcuts are too risky. And that risk isn’t worth taking in today’s cyber-insecure world; there’s just too much at stake for both companies and consumers. Removing people from the equation entirely and adding transparency and automation is the only effective way to truly protect and prevent data leaks and ensure with well-defined compliance (Soga & Gaston, 2016).

There is simply no other solution. Most data security solutions on the market let people decide which files to protect and encrypt and which to omit. My suggestion: do the opposite and protect them all. By securing everything only allowing administrators and privileged users to selectively opt-out of specific files it protects enterprises from both internal and external threats without altering the way users collaborate, share, and use files. It’s a new approach to a changing world. Organizations can adopt many security measures that will protect in reducing the risk. With the advancements of technology, there are a wide variety of security measures that will protect the risk. Even though many measures are taken, there would be constant emerging risks to the organization. This could impact the overall performance of the organization (Zarone et al., 2017).
