Security | Threat Detection | Cyberattacks | DevSecOps | Compliance

Our most significant release in years—a major leap forward in helping IT, security, and operations leaders build a more secure, accountable, and high-performing digital workplace.

When company leaders and managers consider their cybersecurity risks, they too often focus on their vulnerability to external threats only. While state-sponsored attacks, phishing attacks, ransomware, and third-party software infiltration are becoming more prevalent in the current threat landscape, it’s important that those potentialities don’t distract attention from the dangers posed by insider threats.

As insider threats become more common, cybersecurity experts need tools that make detecting and preventing them easier. One powerful tool is Splunk, a leading platform for security information and event management (SIEM). In this guide, we’ll explore how to use Splunk to improve your organization’s security against insider threats.

Companies in the finance industry have to look out for a range of insider threats and insider fraud situations, for a number of reasons. There are particular liabilities in play for businesses that deal with financial data. These businesses and institutions are also governed by tighter compliance regulations.

It usually begins with something small. A flagged data transfer, an alert from your insider risk platform, or even a report from IT that a departing employee downloaded a large number of files. The signs can be subtle, often buried in the noise of daily digital activity. But make no mistake – what happens in the next few hours determines whether this becomes a minor blip or a full-blown cybersecurity crisis.

Data is not just a strategic asset. It’s the lifeblood of your organization. Losing access to any strategic asset can threaten an organization’s viability; without plants and equipment, manufacturers would find it difficult to succeed, and service providers can’t operate without brand recognition. Similarly, without data, your organization could be left in a state of complete and utter paralysis, unable to function or recover.

The Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) is more than a checkbox, it’s a mandatory requirement for contractors doing business with the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD). In both Level 1 and Level 2, endpoint security, device control, and monitoring play a critical role in preventing unauthorized access and data leakage of Federal Contract Information (FCI) and Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI).

Teramind, an ISV Accelerate AWS Partner, delivers a crucial layer of visibility, security, and productivity management that highly complements the Amazon WorkSpaces Family services.
