The Modern Guide to Minimizing Insider Threats: User and Entity Behavior Analytics
Insider threats are no longer limited to disgruntled employees or corporate spies. They’ve evolved into something broader, and often-times harder to spot. From compromised user accounts to negligent mistakes and third-party overreach, insider incidents are not shaped by behavior, not just intent
For analysts and security practitioners, that means going beyond static rules and surface-level alerts. Understanding behavior patterns — what’s normal, what’s abnormal, and why it matters — is key to spotting early warning signs, reducing noise, and responding with confidence. When you can connect the dots between access, intent, and activity, you’re one step ahead of the threat.
This guide takes a closer look at the modern shape of insider threats: Who’s behind them, how threats and risk can slip through the cracks, and why identity alone isn’t enough to protect your organization.
