Insider Threats – When Your Biggest Digital Risk Walks in Through the Front Door
The most dangerous security challenge organizations face is not always the external hacker or the sophisticated cyber gang; often, it is the person sitting at a nearby desk. Insider threats—which include current or former employees, contractors, or business partners who misuse their authorized access—represent one of the costliest and most difficult risks to detect. While firewalls guard the perimeter, insider threats bypass these defenses entirely, walking through the front door with legitimate credentials and direct access to sensitive data, systems, and proprietary information.
