Ransomware, insider threat and denial of service are considered the top threats to sensitive data by respondents to the 2017 SANS Data Protection Survey. User credentials and privileged accounts represented the most common data types involved in these breaches reported in the survey, spotlighting the fact that access data is prized by attackers. The experiences of respondents with compromised data provide valuable lessons for security professionals.
