The disclosed teachings include a computer-implemented method a computer-implemented method for identifying a data breach. The method includes monitoring movement of data over a computer network in real-time or near real-time relative to at least one of a user, a device, or a software application, comparing the monitored movement of the data to a baseline movement of the data over the computer network in real-time or near real-time relative to at least one of the user, the device, or the software application, and identifying an ongoing data breach in real-time or near real-time based on the comparison. The identified ongoing data breach indicates a relationship between the data and at least one of the user, the device, and the software application.
