An insider threat refers to the risk posed by individuals within an organization who have authorized access to its systems, networks, or data, and who may misuse that access—intentionally or unintentionally—to cause harm. These threats can come from current or former employees, contractors, or business partners, and can range from data theft and sabotage to the unintentional leaking of sensitive information. Unlike external threats, insider threats are often more difficult to detect because they originate from individuals who are already trusted within the organization.

Our solutions include robust access controls, continuous monitoring, and comprehensive training programs to raise awareness about security best practices. By fostering a culture of security and vigilance, CyberCort helps organizations protect themselves against the significant risks posed by insider threats, ensuring that both their digital and physical assets remain secure.
