Companies in the finance industry have to look out for a range of insider threats and insider fraud situations, for a number of reasons. There are particular liabilities in play for businesses that deal with financial data. These businesses and institutions are also governed by tighter compliance regulations.

Data is not just a strategic asset. It’s the lifeblood of your organization. Losing access to any strategic asset can threaten an organization’s viability; without plants and equipment, manufacturers would find it difficult to succeed, and service providers can’t operate without brand recognition. Similarly, without data, your organization could be left in a state of complete and utter paralysis, unable to function or recover.

While external cyberattacks often make the headlines, internal security risks (aka insider risks) present a significant danger that is sometimes underestimated. These risks can arise from disgruntled employees, negligent insiders, or malicious actors with privileged access. The repercussions of such breaches can be severe, resulting in data loss, financial harm, legal fines, and harm to reputation.

You monitor employees. You trust contractors. That’s the problem. Contractors have full system access, months to plan their exit, and minimal safeguards in place to stop them. They have the same access to your customer databases, pricing models, and intellectual property as your permanent staff. But unlike employees, they know exactly when they’re leaving—with months in advance to prepare.

Organizations must maintain control over sensitive data and prevent unauthorized access or file modifications.
