Insider Threats in the Age of AI: What Security Teams Need to Know

Artificial intelligence has gone from buzzword to business tool almost overnight. Employees are rapidly adopting platforms like ChatGPT, Gemini, and Copilot to draft content, analyze data, brainstorm code, and accelerate productivity. But as AI becomes embedded in everyday workflows, a new category of insider threat is emerging—one that is harder to detect, harder to classify, and potentially more damaging than anything security teams have faced before.

Fall 2025 Product Launch Teaser

Cyberhaven is excited to introduce Data Security Posture Management, now in Early Access. Existing DSPMs helped security teams inventory sensitive data across cloud repositories, but they stop short of delivering meaningful protection. They identify what data organizations have and where it resides, but not who owns it, where it came from, or how it’s being used. As data moves through modern organizations, copied between applications, repos, and endpoints, summarized into AI tools, and shared externally, those systems lose visibility and therefore their ability to protect data.

Introduction to Linea AI by Cyberhaven

Resolve incidents 5x faster, detect 40% more critical incidents, and reduce future incidents by 90% with Linea AI by Cyberhaven. Linea AI thinks like the smartest security analyst, precisely spotting insider risks across billions of workflows and every piece of data. It understands how people work the way a human would, but it never loses focus and can apply human-like insight at an incredible scale.

Data Security Posture Management, Early Access

Today's data sprawls across the cloud, on-prem, and endpoints. Data lives everywhere, but the biggest challenge isn't just knowing where data resides across the organization. Security teams must understand what the data represents, identify what’s at risk, and protect it in real time.

Browser Agent Security Risk - ChatGPT Atlas Corporate Adoption Trends

Last Tuesday, October 21st, OpenAI released ChatGPT Atlas, an AI-powered browser that allows users to interact with ChatGPT directly from any browser tab. Throughout last week, the Cyberhaven Labs team tracked its adoption in corporate environments and actively investigated its security vulnerabilities.

Outsource Your DPO: Cut Compliance Costs by 70%

The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the UK’s Data Protection Act 2018 (DPA 18) have transformed how businesses must handle personal data. With fines of up to €20 million or 4% of global annual turnover for non-compliance, organisations cannot afford to take data protection lightly. The law‑firm DLA Piper reports that by January 2025 the total fines across Europe since GDPR came into force stood at €5.88 billion.

What Is Synthetic Backup and How Does It Work?

Backup windows that stretch into business hours create real problems for IT teams. Synthetic backup fixes the problem by letting teams reconstruct complete backup sets without touching production systems. The process combines your last full backup with incremental changes, creating a fresh full backup entirely offline. This approach cuts backup windows by 60-80% compared to traditional methods.

How to Implement Effective Data Protection in the Education Sector

As education platforms embrace DevOps, missing backups in the overall data protection strategy will expose systems to outages, data corruption, ransomware attacks, and prolonged recovery times. Let’s break down how backing up data securely can shield education technology, with immutable storage, unbreakable encryption keys, and flexible recovery. and what problems organizations may face when backup and disaster recovery of such critical systems is overlooked.

Shadow AI and the New Data Defense Paradigm: Insights from Our Data Defense Forum

Last month, we brought together some of the brightest minds in cybersecurity for our Data Defense Forum event. As someone who's been in the trenches of data security for years, I walked away from these conversations with a renewed sense of urgency and optimism about where we're headed.
