Unintentional disclosures are incidents where confidential information is revealed without intending to do so. These can take different forms, such as accidental leaks, inadvertent disclosures, or unintended sharing. Other synonyms for unintentional disclosures include accidental breaches, unexpected disclosures, fortuitous releases, inadvertent leaks, inadvertent exposures, and unintentional exposures or data breaches. These synonyms highlight the unintentional nature of the disclosure and emphasize that it was not done deliberately. Unintentional disclosures can have serious consequences, particularly if they involve sensitive or confidential information, hence the importance of taking steps to prevent them. This may include training employees, implementing access controls, regular risk assessments and monitoring, and using security software.
