Various cases of leakage of sensitive files such as confidential report and privacy documents of customers and staff have been reported mistakenly sent via email, leaked through unprotected USB Sticks and mobile devices. Multi-agent systems have experienced growing acceptance and importance as distributed systems become more widespread. The most common issues of this system are security in term of vulnerability of documents. This research address the security issues of a multi-agent in a distributed environment providing a data leakage prevention model that effectively control data leakage, data loss and data theft from an insider.
