Perhaps you've read the John Grisham novel The Firm, or have seen the movie by the same title. In it, the trusted attorney turns against his employers. He circumvents the modest document security features by having an assistant copy legal files after hours by means of stolen magnetic swipe cards that are used to track and bill clients for chargeback purposes. That was fiction, but based on real-world experiences. Today's threats are more complex, involving multiple media. This table identifies several high-risk sectors that without adequate protection of data streams and stored documents leave companies vulnerable to information theft, leaking, or falsification.
