Insider threats continue to be on the rise, and are now estimated to comprise 30% of all cyber incidents. While external threats often receive more media attention and executive focus, the seldom discussed insider threat isn’t to be ignored from human error to compromised supply chain partners to cyber criminals lying in wait, insider threats are challenging to detect and mitigate as they often have legitimate access to systems. Don’t overlook this internal risk as attackers steal login credentials, lurk inside your network, and use lateral movement to pivot to larger enterprises to steal data and intellectual property. 

Key Takeaways:

• Why insider threats are rising and are more challenging to detect
• How insider threats vs threats inside your network differ and what to stop both
• Why rapid detection of insider threats minimizes damage and incident response
• How to balance insider threat vs external threat mitigation
• How to predict, prevent, detect, and respond to insider threats simply and affordably
