Data Leakage Worldwide: The Effectiveness of Security Policies

Every corporate culture is different, and there is no one right way to create and enforce security policies. But each company must find a way to make its security policy strategy effective, or risk losing immeasurable value in sensitive information and expensive resources. Survey employees, consult with executives, or talk with others in the industry. Encourage executive commitment and employee acceptance through any means at disposal. If one proactively set expectations for security responsibility and policy compliance and follow through with practical policies and good communications, security policies can successfully help prevent data leakage.
