Insider Risk vs Insider Threat: What's the Difference?

In this video, we break down these two important but often-confused terms in cybersecurity.

👉 Insider risk refers to the potential for harm that comes from employees, contractors, or partners who have access to sensitive data — whether accidental or intentional.
👉 Insider threat is when that risk becomes an actual malicious or negligent action that puts your organization at risk.

Understanding the difference is critical for building a strong data protection strategy. Insider risk management helps organizations spot risky behavior early, while insider threat detection focuses on stopping active incidents.

Watch now to learn how both concepts work together to protect your company’s most valuable data.
