Insider threats are among the most difficult cybersecurity risks to detect and mitigate because they come from trusted individuals inside an organization. Whether it’s a disgruntled employee selling sensitive data, an unintentional mistake by a well-meaning user, or a third-party contractor with too much access—insiders pose a significant security risk. In this episode, will break down the different types of insider threats, why people turn against their organizations, and how to detect and mitigate insider threats before they cause damage. We are covering all of this and more on this episode of The Dark Assassins Podcast.
