How do the 5 pillars protect your organization?
A comprehensive framework that evaluates your organization's defenses across the most critical attack vectors, weighted by real-world impact
Visibility
Comprehensive monitoring and detection of insider activities across your organization. Gartner's 'Rule of Three' framework identifies visibility as the foundation for detecting the three threat types (careless users, malicious users, compromised credentials) through comprehensive monitoring capabilities. 85% of effective programs utilize User Behavior Analytics (UBA) for baseline establishment (Gartner G00805757, 2024).
Prevention & Coaching
Proactive measures and training to prevent insider threats before they occur. Aligns with Gartner's 'Rule of Three' mitigation goal to 'Deter' threats by addressing the root causes. Since more than 50% of insider incidents lack malicious intent, prevention and coaching programs are essential. Organizations with comprehensive prevention programs reduce incident costs by 31% and experience 27% fewer insider threat events (Ponemon Institute, 2025; Gartner G00805757, 2024).
Investigation & Evidence
Robust capabilities for investigating incidents and preserving digital evidence. Supports Gartner's 'Rule of Three' mitigation goal to 'Disrupt' threats through rapid response and forensic analysis. Critical as Gartner notes that 70% of organizations face technical challenges in insider threat management. Organizations with mature investigation capabilities reduce average containment time from 81 days to 52 days, saving an average of $2.1M per incident (Ponemon Institute, 2025; Gartner G00805757, 2024).
Identity & SaaS/OAuth
Strong identity management and secure access controls for cloud applications. Gartner's 2024 research shows that 92% of insider incidents involve identity-related vulnerabilities, making robust IAM controls essential for risk reduction (Gartner G00805757, 2024).
Phishing Resilience
Advanced protection against phishing attacks and social engineering. Verizon's 2024 DBIR identifies phishing as the enabler for 68% of breaches with human elements, making comprehensive phishing resilience critical for insider risk prevention (Verizon DBIR, 2024).
Comprehensive Risk Assessment
Each pillar is weighted based on real-world impact data from Ponemon Institute research. Together, they provide a complete picture of your organization's insider risk posture.

How do insider risk management approaches compare?
Compare traditional reactive security vs. proactive insider risk management vs. comprehensive assessment-driven strategies
| Approach | Detection Time | Average Cost | Prevention Rate | ROI |
|---|---|---|---|---|
Reactive Security Traditional incident response | 91+ days Post-incident detection | $18.7M Per organization annually | 15% Minimal prevention | Negative High incident costs |
Proactive Programs Dedicated insider risk mgmt | 31-81 days Monitoring-based detection | $13.6M Reduced incident impact | 45% Training effectiveness | $5.2M Training ROI |
Assessment-Driven Comprehensive risk evaluation | <31 days Early detection focus | $10.6M Optimal containment | 65% Pre-empt breaches | $8.1M Early detection savings |
Key Insight from Ponemon Institute 2025
Organizations using assessment-driven approaches achieve 65% success in pre-empting breaches and save $8.1M through early detection, compared to reactive approaches that face $18.7M in annual costs.
