What Is a Data Spill?
A data spill occurs when sensitive or classified files are stored or shared in unauthorized locations. Most often, this happens by accident someone attaches the wrong document to an email, for example. But the risks are real: compliance issues, security threats, and major fines.
Common Challenges of a Data Spill
- Time Pressure – Every minute counts before data spreads further.
- Tracking File Locations – Copies may hide in temp folders, backups, emails or archives.
- Erasing Every Trace – It’s not just about deleting files; you need to sanitize metadata, eliminate data remanence, and verify that no recoverable traces are left behind.
The 3-Step Response Plan
Jetico recommends the following approach, demonstrated in the video:
- Locate Spill – Use BCWipe’s Search feature to identify all instances of the sensitive data across your network.
- Erase & Remediate – Sanitize original files, metadata and any residual traces to ensure complete cleanup beyond forensic recovery.
- Verify Success – Generate erasure reports to confirm data has been securely removed and support compliance efforts.
