The greatest risks to your organisation aren’t always external. Increasingly, they come from within. Whether intentional or accidental, insider activity continues to account for a growing share of data breaches, from employees mishandling sensitive data to malicious insiders motivated by financial or personal gain. As hybrid work, cloud adoption and generative AI redefine how and where data flows, the lines between error, negligence and intent are blurring fast. This session explores how insider risk has evolved beyond traditional compliance and awareness, and why organisations must take a proactive, data-led approach to identifying and managing human risk before it becomes a crisis.
Join Integrity360’s Brian Martin and Mimecasts’s Glenn Smith — a seasoned cyber security professional with over two decades of experience helping global organisations strengthen their defences — for a thought-provoking discussion on the real-world impact of insider risk. Together, they’ll unpack how to spot the early indicators of risky behaviour, leverage data-driven insights to predict potential threats, and balance trust, culture and control in a way that empowers people rather than policing them. Expect a practical, forward-looking conversation that goes beyond theory to help you build resilience from the inside out.
