Insider threat management in cybersecurity is a strategy to protect an organisation from insider threats. These threats originate from an organisation internally due to malicious employees, compromised accounts or systems, corporate espionage, and negligence. It aims to expose sensitive data, conduct external attacks, disrupt operations, damage finances and reputation, and raise compliance issues.
Insider threat management saves you from these risks by helping you detect, analyse, respond to, and prevent insider attacks. It goes beyond traditional monitoring and uses advanced scanners and user and entity behaviour analytics to find active and passive insider security threats. This helps you prevent cyber attacks, safeguard sensitive data, and maintain compliance and customer trust.
