Every major breach story has the same twist:
the attacker looked like a normal employee.
A trusted staff member quietly copying client lists “for later.”
An engineer syncing source code to a personal drive.
A new hire, placed by a hostile actor, slowly mapping your systems.
No malware. No firewall alerts. Just everyday activity… with extraordinary consequences.
That’s insider risk.
Today’s reality:
- Distributed, hybrid workforces
- Contractors, partners, and third parties
- Sensitive data spread across SaaS, cloud, and endpoints
In this world, the most dangerous person in your environment is often the one with valid credentials.
Traditional security tools (firewalls, EDR, AV) are built to stop external attacks.
They cannot understand intent, context, or slow-build behavior that looks “normal” in isolation.
You don’t just need more alerts.
You need a program that recognises and responds to insider risk as a business threat.
We help you design and run a complete Insider Risk Program that combines governance, detection, and response – tightly integrated with your existing DLP and security stack.
We build the foundation so your program is effective and defensible:
- Clear insider risk policies and scenarios (bribed employees, infiltrated actors, departing staff, privileged abuse)
- Alignment with HR, Legal, IT and Security
- Privacy- and GDPR-aware monitoring practices
- Defined roles, responsibilities, and escalation paths
We implement or optimise insider risk detection to see the story behind the activity:
- Behavioural analytics (UEBA) to baseline “normal” and flag anomalies
- Correlation of signals from:
- DLP, endpoints, cloud apps, IAM
- HR events (role changes, notice periods, issues)
- Risk scoring to focus on the few truly critical cases instead of hundreds of false positives
3. Deep DLP Integration
Turn your DLP from a noisy control into a strategic sensor:
- Use DLP incidents as key signals in insider risk analytics
- Apply context-aware controls:
- Softer, educational prompts for mistakes
- Stricter, dynamic controls for high-risk individuals or situations
- Automate workflows:
- Open cases
- Notify HR or managers
- Escalate severe patterns to security leadership
Insider risk is about people. We help you respond fairly and consistently:
- Playbooks for negligent, repeat, and malicious behavior
- Proportional, documented actions that stand up to regulatory and internal scrutiny
- Clear communication and awareness so employees understand what is monitored and why
A mature Insider Risk Program with integrated detection and DLP delivers:
- Reduced IP and data theft – earlier detection of bribed and infiltrated insiders
- Lower noise, higher signal – fewer alerts, more meaningful cases
- Faster, clearer investigations – complete behavioral timelines instead of scattered logs
- Regulatory confidence – supports ISO 27001, NIS2, GDPR accountability
- Stronger culture of trust – transparent, fair monitoring instead of “big brother” fear
You move from hoping your people won’t be exploited…
to knowing you can see, understand, and manage insider risk.
If your organisation depends on its data, IP, and customer trust, insider risk is no longer optional – it’s a board-level topic.
We help you turn DLP and security tools into a real Insider Risk capability that protects your business from the threats already inside your perimeter.
