Abstract
A system for discovering and monitoring data movement across the file system on a specific device or across the network, which enables to detect data leakage and locate specific data across the organization. The system tracks files by having devices maintain a record of hash values associated with a file in a tables of hash values. The memory used to maintain the records of each file can be distributed to each device carrying the files. The system can analyze the data leak of a file by receiving a hash value of a file and requesting devices to search and respond with information about files that have the same hash value. Furthermore, based on the table of hash values for all the files, the system can recreate the origination of each file and the number of different versions that exist of the file.
