Abstract:
A computer-implemented method for detecting information leakage by an organizational insider may include (1) identifying a set of organizational insiders of an organization, (2) identifying a set of public forums used by one or more organizational insiders, (3) identifying a set of messages posted to one or more public forums, (4) creating a message record corresponding to each message, with the record including a message summary, and a set of message metadata fields, (5) consolidating message records with common metadata fields into a message summary record, and (6) identifying, based on the message summary record, an information leakage threat. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.
