Insider Threat Prevention Guide

In a perfect world, trust would never be violated. Cyber defenses would be impregnable. No employee would ever behave maliciously or allow their systems to be compromised out of negligence or carelessness. Thus, there would be no need for organizations to monitor or manage insider risks.
Unfortunately, the evidence in this whitepaper paints a different picture. Insider threats are increasing rapidly in both their frequency and impacts. There are no simple solutions. BlackBerry recommends that organizations begin by re-examining their existing security controls and processes to assess their suitability for managing insider risks. Next-gen EPP and EDR solutions should be deployed that utilize AI, ML, and automation to mitigate insider threats before they escalate into major security incidents.
