Insider threats rarely fit a single profile. This book shows how to address malicious, negligent, and compromised insiders through clear definitions, practical governance, risk-based access controls, and a coordinated operating model.
You'll learn how to identify critical assets and toxic access combinations, build useful telemetry and behavioural baselines, tune detections, investigate alerts, preserve evidence, and respond without relying on stereotypes. Coverage includes data theft, privilege abuse, cloud and DevOps risks, third parties, remote work, privacy obligations, and employee offboarding.
Designed for security leaders, threat hunters, incident responders, IT teams, legal and HR partners, and anyone building or improving an insider threat program. It closes with practical metrics, automation, tabletop exercises, and continuous improvement.
