The consistent rise in Insider Threat-related incidents has led to a growing focus and investment in proactively detecting these threats. According to reports, 60% of organizations discovered one or more insider attacks last year, and 90% admitted that they felt vulnerable to insider attacks. Reports also show that it takes an average of over two months to contain an insider attack.
Employees are both the biggest asset of a company and also the biggest risk factor. Forensic software is designed to provide visibility when malicious or incompetent employee behavior is suspected that could present a threat to the company.
