According to the 2020 Cost of Insider Threats Global Report by the Ponemon Institute, the average global cost of Insider Threats rose by 31% in two years to $11.45 million, and the frequency of incidents spiked by 47% in the same time period.
Since the report was published, the Covid-19 pandemic gripped the nation – forcing organizations to manage business-critical functions that were traditionally in-office activities remotely. This shift in workforce dynamics brings with it a new set of cybersecurity and insider threat challenges.
