Insider Threat Management - Where to Begin?

In this short video, Justin Barnett breaks down three essential steps to help organizations build a strong foundation for their Insider Risk Management (IRM) program:

1️⃣ Identify Key Use Cases Start with your existing policies—acceptable use, data classification, and user conduct. These guide your priorities for addressing insider threats like data leaks, IP theft, and misuse of resources.

2️⃣ Establish Stakeholders IRM isn’t just a security function. HR, Legal, and GRC play critical roles in ensuring a coordinated, responsible response.

3️⃣ Create and Update Policies & Procedures Technology helps detect risks, but it’s the consistent, documented processes—and lessons learned—that keep your program sustainable and effective.
