While malicious insiders are a threat that most of us would like to imagine we might never have to deal with, it’s still one of the cyber threats you must realistically consider and plan for. But how do you identify malicious intent and potential attacks from those already inside our network that have legitimate access to our data? Check out this episode where James Rowley lays out what you need to consider when it comes to insider threat detection.
