SurveilStar - The trustworthy Internet/computer monitoring software
The insider threat is often characterized as an employee performing malicious behavior-through sabotage, stealing data or physical devices, or purposely leaking confidential information. However, organizations need to be aware that the insider threat is not just the rogue employee, but rather every employee and every device that stores information. Employees are insider threats if they speak loudly about confidential project plans while on the phone at the airport. A lost laptop containing company information can become an insider threat if it is recovered by an outsider with malicious intent.

The findings from a global security study on data leakage revealed that the data loss resulting from employee behavior poses a much more extensive threat than many IT professionals believe. Commissioned by Cisco and conducted by U.S.-based market research firm InsightExpress, the study polled more than 2000 employees and information technology professionals in 10 countries. Cisco selected the countries based on their diverse social and business cultures, with the goal of better understanding whether these factors affect data leakage.
In the hands of uninformed, careless, or disgruntled employees, every device that accesses the network or stores data is a potential risk to intellectual property or sensitive customer data. Magnifying this problem is a disconnect between the beliefs of IT professionals and the realities of the current security environment for countless businesses. The new findings show that "insider threats" have the potential to cause greater financial losses than attacks that originate outside the company.
• 33 percent of IT professionals were most concerned about data being lost or stolen through USB devices.
• 39 percent of IT professionals worldwide were more concerned about the threat from their own employees than the threat from outside hackers.
• 27 percent of IT professionals admitted that they did not know the trends of data loss incidents over the past few years.
Mitigating data leakage from insider threats is a difficult challenge. Businesses must take advantage of every opportunity to better understand how employee behavior and intent relates to security issues, and to make security a priority in every aspect of business operations.
One of the most important security functions today is protecting organizational secrets. We finally have entered a world where everything important is on a server or workstation somewhere in our organizations. Certainly we’re nowhere near paperless, but the really important stuff — including, in many cases, money or its simulacrum — lives happily in our systems as data bits and bytes. It also travels around — on our networks, in email, on thumb drives, on CDs, etc. How do we ensure that critical corporate data, intellectual property, private information and the like don’t grow wings and fly our nicely protected coop? The answer is SurveilStar data protection management!

No matter how strong an Acceptable Use Policy you have in place, without enforcement using Employee Monitoring Software, theft of your company assets eventually will occur – it’s inevitable.
Most employees believe that digital theft is extremely difficult to detect. Furthermore, they believe that if they contribute to something at work they are entitled to a copy of it. If an employee thinks that they can copy a proprietary or confidential document to removable media, or print it out without detection, they will do so. The risk of this activity is the highest in the days leading up to the employee’s resignation. In an unmonitored environment your assets and proprietary, confidential information are at a huge risk for digital leakage.
Activities such as frequent access to removable media, unusually high printer usage, or unusually high volumes of email with attachments can be indicative of digital theft. From the SurveilStar data protection management High Level View, quickly identify the employees who are performing these activities and then drill down to see if the corresponding data is company related.
