Why are organizations missing insider threats? What are some key insider risk management considerations? Why are organizations missing insider threats? Image Limited visibility. Fewer than 20% of enterprises have an insider risk management program. Instead, most organizations focus on external threats and fail to monitor authorized users or have limited data fidelity to support insider use cases. Image Narrow focus. Organizations with an insider risk program frequently focus on data loss or technology only, forgetting the broader set of risks that insiders can uniquely pose to an organization.
