Insider Threat
As the complexity of the workplace increases, insider threats increase, too. Monitoring cyber footprints and human behavioral indicators in a single platform is the ideal combination to detect and prevent insider attacks before they occur. Partner with our team to ensure the protection of your company’s critical assets and help you prevent an insider incident before it occurs.
Insider risk solutions
A comprehensive insider risk program requires people, processes, and tools, acting collectively to achieve the greatest benefit and return on investment.
Insider risk management program
The upward trend of insider threat losses are the result of an evolving threat landscape, including Generation-Y Millennials accustomed to evolving technology and possessing greater levels of technical expertise, the ease of taking anything stored electronically, and heightened economic pressures.
Leveraging traditional defense-in-depth models — multi-layered defensive network systems — to secure information is no longer enough to protect your organization from an insider attack. Centered on our industry-leading experience in counterintelligence, investigative, and industry experience, we partner with our clients to provide the most robust, advanced, insider risk management program available. This requires continuous monitoring, continuous evaluation of both human and IT-centric behavioral indicators and evaluation of individual attributes.
Program benefits
- Protect critical assets and prevent loss of intellectual and proprietary property, confidential data or customer information
- Ensure regulatory compliance, specifically for those in the defense industrial base, financial, and healthcare industries
- Avoid immediate or future loss of revenue
- Maintain customer and shareholder confidence
- Prevent overall harm to an organization’s brand image and reputation

Profile of an Insider Threat
Malicious threats deliberately steal information or sabotages systems. Negligent users may be deceived by external parties into providing data or passwords. Inadvertent threats accidentally delete or modify critical information or unwittingly share sensitive information.
