Insider threats may be more common than think and internal threats can be putting your business at risk. There are simple behaviors that you can look for to detect insider threats. As small as it may seem, bypassing security protocols can pose a large threat to your company. Attempts to bypass security protocols can be a sign that a user is trying to perform potentially hazardous tasks without being detected. If you notice users violating corporate policies, this can be a sign that they do not have the company's best interests. Remind your workers of corporate policies and monitor behavior that conflicts with those policies.
Abnormal office hours can be seen when individuals are working and logging onto the network during hours that are not designated by the company. This can be an indicator of activity that doesn't align with the company's agenda.
