The following are 10 steps that all firms should take to minimize these dangers and
safeguard crucial company data:
1. Data Encryption
Always encrypt information if you wish to reduce the impact of an insider threat. Not all
employees require access to all data, and encryption offers an extra layer of security.
2. Understand the Various Sorts of Insider Risks
Insider threats come in all shapes and sizes. Some are malevolent, while others are the
result of carelessness. Employee behavior, such as trying to retain data, can help identify
malicious threats. Additional security controls may be a good option in this situation.
3. Background Check, Before Hire Someone
Do a background check of any potential employees before you bring them on board. This
will not only reveal any unusual past behavior, but it may also serve as a deterrent to
employing fraudsters or people with ties to your competitors.
4. Enforce the Division of Roles and Least Privilege
When it comes to effective job separation, you must use the principle of least privilege,
which means giving employees access to only the resources they need to complete their
tasks.
5. Use Monitoring Solutions
If you're able to track down the source of an insider assault, monitoring solutions such as
those that leverage application, authentication, and device information can be a
priceless asset.

6. Establish Strong Policies and Practises for Password and Account
Management
If an organization's computer accounts are compromised, insiders will be able to bypass
both physical and automatic defenses against insider attacks.
7. Maintain a system of checks and balances for all employees and
systems
Having more than one person with access to a system, tracking that usage, and
prohibiting the use of shared usernames and passwords are all critical safety measures.
8. Consider Access Controls
Access restrictions may aid in the prevention of both malicious and careless risks. This
also makes information access more complex.
9. Examine Network Records
Keep track of all of your network logs and let others know you do so. This will demonstrate
to employees that you are keeping an eye on their activities, reducing the likelihood of an
insider assault.
10. Provide Regular Cyber Awareness Workshops and training
Frequent, proactive cyber awareness workshops, realistic phishing attacks, and other
similar activities can help train staff to better identify and respond to information security
risks.
