## How to prevent data breaches.

Security teams use proxies to see their own sites and apps from the outside, from other countries and networks, the way visitors and attackers see them. That shows exposed pages, misconfigured regional versions and content that leaks where it should not.

Residential proxies also help when your business researches other markets and needs to see local sites as local visitors do.

## What a data breach is.

You might be asking yourself, “What is a data breach?” A data breach is an incident that exposes confidential or protected information about you or your business. These can be both intentional or accidental.

A data breach might involve someone hacking the database of a company that you’ve shared your personal information with. Or you might be an employee, and your company may accidentally expose critical information about your business or its personnel. Either way, criminals may access key details and profit from them at your expense.

## Questions about proxies for data breach prevention.

### How do data breaches happen?

Data breaches occur when a cybercriminal successfully infiltrates a data source and extracts private or sensitive information. This can be done physically by accessing a computer or network to steal local files directly or by bypassing network security remotely.

### What are residential proxies?

A residential proxy uses a real IP address provided by an internet service provider (ISP). These IP addresses are tied to physical locations across the globe, at the country or city level, so you can see your sites from where your visitors are.

### What are some data breach prevention techniques?

There are some simple things you can do to make your data even more secure. Things like educating your employees, restricting access to certain sensitive data, establishing security protocols, and continue to audit and improve your cybersecurity systems.

### How does your residential bandwidth model work?

The residential bandwidth you purchase doesn’t expire. We offer one-time purchases with no commitment. Once you buy 50 GB, you have access to that 50 GB until you use it up. With the option to always purchase more if you need it.

### How will I get my proxies after I buy them?

Static IPs are ready as soon as you buy. Premium Residential works as soon as you sign up.
