Insider Threat
Responsible for detecting, deterring, and mitigating threats arising from the misuse of authorized access to an organization’s network, systems, or assets, insider threat programs (ITPs) require extensive resources in order to operate effectively. Having spent years combating insider threats, Flashpoint has tailored its offerings to ITP needs, challenges, and objectives.
Since most enterprise security teams typically focus on mitigating external attacks, many organizations lack visibility into threats posed by malicious insiders. Insider threat tools help organizations identify, track and prevent these threats, which arise when current or former employees exploit access to their organization’s systems or data.

Flashpoint’s comprehensive access to online illicit communities provides visibility and quick detection of insider threats in the forums and marketplaces where IP is bought and sold. Uncovering these potential threats in a timely manner allows teams to take action before the damage occurs.
