Looking Inward: Preventing, Detecting and Mitigating Insider Threats

Protecting People

Most workers need some form of insider access to do their jobs. But when that access is misused—whether by malicious, careless or compromised users—it becomes an insider threat that can harm the organization.
Not every insider threat is obvious, and there’s no single approach to managing them.
In this episode Brian Reed, Senior Director of Cybersecurity Strategy at Proofpoint, talks to Stephanie Torto, Senior Product Marketing Manager at Proofpoint. Stephanie provides stories and perspectives on insider threat management.
They also discuss:

• Response strategies for organizations
• How the pandemic accelerated the risk of insider threats
• What the modern DLP and ITM program looks like
