Understanding Insider Threats in Cyber Security

Insider threats refer to risks posed by individuals within an organization, such as employees, contractors, or business partners. These threats can be intentional acts of fraud, data theft, or sabotage, but they can also stem from negligence or human error. Insider threats in cyber security are particularly dangerous, as they can result in significant financial and reputational damage to an organization.



SRS Consulting Services offers a robust insider risk management program designed to detect and address both malicious and accidental insider threats. By understanding the different insider threat types, we can help you safeguard your most valuable assets.

Insider Threat Types

There are several insider threat types that businesses should be aware of:

Malicious Insiders

Employees or associates who intentionally harm the organization by stealing data, sabotaging systems, or leaking sensitive information.

Negligent Insiders

Individuals who unintentionally put the organization at risk due to careless behavior, such as clicking on phishing emails or mishandling sensitive data.

Compromised Insiders

Employees or contractors whose accounts or credentials have been compromised by external hackers, allowing unauthorized access to internal systems.

Detecting insider threats requires a deep understanding of these behaviors and the ability to monitor activities across your organization in real time.
