Thus the reference to these being insider threats, meaning the possibility of data being accessed without authorization is with one or more persons within the company.
Part of effective insider threat management is agreeing this is something that’s a smart move, even if you feel there’s no real risk of that given your understanding of the types of people working within the company. With medium to large-sized companies, it’s going to be more uncertainty with all of this.

You never know, and it’s best not to become aware of it after a data leak has occurred. After that you’re in damage control, rather than damage prevention, A good insider threat management program is damage prevention.
It’s common for companies to have their insider threat management protocols contained within their DLP (data loss prevention). Where that often falls short is in the way that they will highlight suspicious activities but be unclear as to establishing how these potential threats are going to be effectively neutralized.
For example, you may have a DLP program with email filters that can prevent emails containing sensitive data from being sent. However, you need to realize that once you’re at that point the risk has already been established.
