Varonis Systems, a provider of software solutions that protect data from insider threats and cyberattacks, has revealed the results of a year of anonymous data collected during risk assessments conducted for potential customers on a limited subset of their file systems.

The 2015 results show a staggering level of exposure in corporate file systems. Just a couple of these alarming findings are that:

• The average company had 9.9 million files that were accessible by every employee in the company regardless of their roles
• One company had more than 2 million files containing sensitive data (credit card, social security or account numbers) that everyone in the company could access.
