Combating Insider Threats

It’s true—insider threat events are typically much less frequent than external attacks. However, insider threats often pose a much higher severity of risk for organizations when they do happen. As insiders are given access to sensitive information for work purposes, there’s a great potential for them to do a tremendous amount of damage to a business if they accidentally break policy or choose to steal.
