According to a recent Ponemon study, “2022 Cost of Insider Threats: Global Report,” insider threat is now the biggest cybersecurity risk for organizations. With insider risk incidents growing 44% since 2020, businesses must actively protect themselves from the damage these risks can inflict. Unfortunately, companies cannot mitigate internal risk simply by out-designing or out-developing malicious actors. Instead, a growing number of organizations are setting up dedicated insider risk teams to aggressively address insider risk before it strikes. By having a solid insider threat mitigation strategy in place, organizations can detect risks early on and analyze them before critical data, or personnel information is compromised.  From incident response, to forensic investigation, to litigation and regulatory response, EY Privacy and Cyber Response professionals assist organizations to fight and prepare against the most challenging cyber attacks.

If you are wondering what steps your organization should take to mitigate insider risk or how an effective insider risk framework can help protect your organization, check out the latest thought leadership paper from EY, on “How leading organizations tackle insider risks ” where it highlights strategies to defend against insider threats and how organizations can manage risks.
