Insider Threat Detection & Prevention With ROWAN Security

With insider threats ever present and always evolving, ROWAN Security is committed to helping corporate leaders deter, detect, and mitigate internal breaches. We use a tried-and-proven approach to ensure that there are minimal chances for a successful insider breach within your organization. When they occur, we pull out all the stops to minimize their impact and subsequent recurrence. Our multi-pronged approach includes:

Security Threat Alerts in Exposure and Susceptibility Evaluation

With this service, we provide the answer to the burning question that any shrewd business owner or corporate leader will have: just how vulnerable is my organization to insider threats? Our seasoned ROWAN Security specialists conduct a comprehensive assessment of various threat scenarios to determine your company’s vulnerability. We evaluate your current security policies, review the effectiveness of your security teams, and identify any weaknesses in your defenses, ensuring that your organization is well-prepared to mitigate insider threats

We categorize internal threats based on likelihood and impact and work with you to implement tailored solutions to eliminate identified threats. Our risk assessment services are applicable and tailored to various industries.

Employee Screening

As a forward-thinking corporate leader, the best time to eliminate potential insider threats is right at the start—don’t hire them! While seemingly impossible to tell whether or not a potential employee will pose an internal threat beforehand, ROWAN Security’s comprehensive pre-employment background checks are a known game-changer in this regard. With extensive experience in conducting such investigations, our professionals can often detect red flags that others cannot. Additionally, we focus on privileged access management and provide robust security training to ensure new hires understand the importance of data security. This proactive approach helps prevent issues like data breaches and data theft, reducing the risks posed by insiders right from the beginning.

Besides pre-hire checks, ROWAN Security also conducts ongoing employee screening for existing employees. We employ proven behavioral analytics to determine which employees may be a threat to your organization and actively work to resolve the situation. Our goal is always to prevent rather than react after the fact.

Policy Development

You will be surprised at the number of insider threats that can be averted by having the right policies in place. From straightforward things such as urgently revoking access for terminated employees to other detailed access restrictions among existing employees, ROWAN Security will work with you to develop policies that work for your organization.

By helping you to implement clear workplace guidelines, we cushion you against insider threats of the negligent kind.

Training and security awareness

Naturally, the best-placed individuals to identify a potential insider threat would be the people working alongside said threat. Recognizing this, ROWAN Security provides training to equip workers with the skills to detect and appropriately react to potential office threats.

Reliable & Secure Monitoring Systems

There is nothing that is quite as powerful as reliable monitoring in preventing insider threats. Keeping IT logs and monitoring access logs is the first step in preventing insider threats. Additionally, we can install systems to flag unusual activities such as odd-time log-ins, attempted access to unauthorized files, and unusually large downloads.

We know that just the knowledge of being monitored can do a lot to keep employees in check. But we also understand that turning the workplace into a surveillance fortress isn’t exactly the best way to create a positive work environment. At ROWAN Security, we strike the balance that keeps your organization secure while maintaining a positive work environment. We help design tailored security policies, guide your security teams, and ensure strong data security practices. Our approach focuses on identifying potential threats from insiders while minimizing disruption and maintaining trust within your workforce.

Incident Response

Even with strong measures in place, we know that some insider threats can still slip through the cracks until they cause real harm. We walk with you through these murky waters to ensure a swift and appropriate response. ROWAN Security helps with the investigations and also the prevention of similar incidents in the future, focusing on areas like privileged access management, access control, and security training. We aim to prevent serious consequences such as data breaches and data theft while ensuring your organization is protected from future attacks.

Regulatory Compliance Protection

Besides addressing a looming threat, ROWAN Security’s insider threat prevention services are also good for compliance with regulatory obligations. We conduct thorough investigations to identify potential risks and prevent future attacks. Our tailored solutions ensure your organization adheres to critical policies and meets standards such as NISPOM, making compliance much smoother and easier with us in your corner.
