How does Assumed Seeds work?

Implementing Assumed Seeds is simple.  Plant them where your sensitive consumer data is stored and monitor your Assumed inbox to discover what’s really happening with your data.

  1. Purchase artificial leak-detecting contacts. These seed contacts include a name, an actual working email address, a phone number and other record attributes you define.

2. Plant seed contacts wherever your sensitive data is stored. You can place these leak-detecting contacts in your CRM, HR systems, mailing lists or anywhere else you store personal consumer or employee data.

3. Check your Assumed inbox. The Assumed Inbox collects incoming email messages, voice calls and text messages (SMS) that your artificial contact has received. Use a label and allowlisting system to validate your processes and identify leaks.
