Insider Risk Management
Key Risks Posed by Insiders
Compromised Accounts
Bad actors may collect passwords used across business and personal accounts, or trick users into sharing credentials
User Carelessness
Users may mistakenly share links to sensitive documents or destroy important information accidentally
Malicious User Actions
Users may intentionally sabotage or exfiltrate data for either personal reasons or financial gain
The Egnyte Solution
Detect Unusual User Behavior
Get alerted when there is an unusual volume of file access beyond normal behaviour, as well as unusual login locations and impossible travel between logins. If detected, Egnyte can block access or suspend an account.
Prevent & Protect Against Malware
Executable malware cannot run in Egnyte's domain. Egnyte protects by automatically scanning all uploaded files for malware and quarantining suspicious files for review. Egnyte even detects artifacts such as increased file entropy or file accesses that may indicate a ransomware attack that eluded signature-based detection.
Built-In Safeguards
Apply data-centric controls to restrict sharing and download of sensitive data by insiders. Options include: ”view only” permissions, safeguard policies to block creation of public links to sensitive information, watermarking, and more. Automatic versioning and snapshots further protect data in the event of a deletion or extortion incident.
