Intellectual property theft and internal data leaks can undermine your business. Combat insider threats and safeguard your organization's sensitive files and information with SecureView.
As a leader within an organization, information – often privileged, sensitive, or even proprietary in nature – needs to be shared to do business effectively. And while permission setting, device management, and other hardware or access management options do well in certain situations at preventing unauthorized access, those options can be difficult to use and frustrating to the information sharer legitimately sharing information outside the pre-approved access. Jumping through hoops to ‘get the job done’ can lead to mismanagement of information and careless mistakes. Once information is shared, how can its journey be traced and monitored? Information can’t be un-shared once it’s been copied, downloaded, or forwarded – and therein lies the problem. How can you effectively share information without compromising security?
We haven't overlooked DLP and DRM solutions. Data loss prevention (DLP) and data rights management (DRM) have their place within organizations and can be a part of data stewardship and helping people understand the boundaries and value of information. However, while DLP “discovers, classifies, and enforces data protection policies” and DRM allows for the secure sharing of files externally, with the ability to revoke access, that doesn’t solve the core issue of data security AFTER it’s already saved or printed. In fact, these traditional solutions often impede legitimate use cases and do not work well across organizational boundaries, causing users to avoid them.
Information sharing creates a gap with the potential for data to fall into the wrong hands, or even worse, misused by the ‘right hands’ that seek to sabotage and threaten their organization. These insider risks can be just as serious and severe as those outside. Intellectual Property (IP) theft and internal data leaks, often perpetrated by those within the company itself, pose a silent but deadly risk to operations, reputation, and business bottom line. There is a critical need for innovative security measures, and EchoMark's SecureView is your essential tool in the battle against insider threats.
Imagine a trusted employee, perhaps unnoticed among the hundreds or thousands at your organization, quietly exfiltrates critical data. It's not just a scene from a corporate thriller but a reality faced by companies worldwide. Insider incidents, from IP theft to unauthorized data disclosures, can bypass traditional defenses, making them harder to detect and more damaging in the long run. According to the 2023 Cost of Insider Risks Global Report, “in 2023, the total average annual cost of an insider risk increased to $16.2 million per organization,” with non-malicious insiders accounting for 75% of incidents.
Intellectual property, from proprietary processes and patented products to customer databases, is a prime target for disgruntled employees or opportunistic insiders. The pervasive nature of IP theft leads to consequences that stretch beyond immediate financial loss, potentially undermining competitive advantages and long-term business strategies.
Whether accidental or deliberate, data leaks can expose sensitive information, leading to legal repercussions, regulatory fines, and damaged stakeholder trust. There are countless examples of insider threats over the years, from the automotive and healthcare industries, to retail and finance giants.
Ignoring the potential for insider threats can have a far-reaching impact. Without a proactive approach to deterring threats and preventing leaks and data exfiltration, organizations are left vulnerable to devastating losses and questioning leadership’s effectiveness.
Recognizing these vulnerabilities, SecureView offers a proactive and secure approach to mitigating insider risks.
