Even the most advanced security stacks cannot see everything. Insider risks, whether accidental or malicious, can slip through the cracks. Sensitive files move between users, devices, and cloud locations every day, and many of these movements go unnoticed by traditional DLP tools.
According to QBE Insurance, about 1 in 10 reported cyber incidents in Australia are caused by insider threats. This includes actions taken intentionally or accidentally by employees or contractors. These incidents can lead to data loss, compliance breaches, and reputational damage, yet many organisations still lack the visibility to detect them early. Managing insider threats in cyber security | QBE AU.
Mimecast Incydr changes that. Deployed in just minutes, it delivers unmatched visibility into how data moves inside and outside your organisation, detecting risky file activity that other tools may miss. Incydr works seamlessly with Microsoft Purview to enrich data protection strategies, providing additional context and actionable insights that help security teams proactively address insider threats.
Data#3 has an extensive and specialised National Security Practice, including a dedicated Security Specialist focused solely on Mimecast solutions, that delivers robust outcomes for organisations with security challenges.
