Overview

Insider threats can be difficult to detect. Whether through malicious intent or simple negligence, current or former employees, contractors, and even outsiders using stolen credentials can capture and exploit inside information such as intellectual property, customer data, security practices, and IT systems.

Mitigating insider threats requires a combination of endpoint and network visibility, advanced behavior analytics, and enterprise investigation technology to uncover hidden risks before they can do damage.

Key benefits

Detect threats before damage is done to your company, customers, and employees and investigate system infiltration.

Business impacts

  • Remote workforce risks

    Remote work means more devices and endpoints to protect, some unconnected from the network. Without a full view of enterprise and off-VPN activity, security teams may not see all the risks. Reduce vulnerabilities with a complete view of all activity.

  • Insider threats

    Insiders are more likely to know where high-value information is stored. They are also more familiar with the organization’s IT and physical systems, making it easier to gain access to these systems. Identify and remediate insider threats earlier.

  • Rapid investigation and remediation

    A rapid response to identified internal threats is critical to mitigating damage. That means quickly finding the root cause, analyzing it and taking action. Minimize time to remediation with modern forensic enterprise investigation tools.

  • Intellectual property protection

    Intellectual property is what makes your organization unique. Insider threats like leaks and theft can put your intellectual property in the hands of your competitors. Safeguard your innovations to protect market position and prevent costly losses.

  • Reputation management

    Your brand’s reputation matters more than ever. Customer data breaches lead to negative media coverage and loss of trust, damaging your reputation. Catch insider threats before damage can be done, ensuring your brand stays strong.

  • Network visibility and intelligence

    Security teams need total network visibility to quickly detect and respond to insider threats. Without that insight, differentiating the good players from the bad actors can be challenging. Add intelligence and visibility to network activity.
