Cybersecurity strategies tend to focus on external threats. But insider threats are on the rise, increasing by 44% over the past two years. Whether caused by employee negligence or malicious intent, insider-related incidents incur an average cost of $484,931 per event, posing a serious risk to your business. Can your organization identify the vulnerabilities that lead to insider abuse?

- Why Active Directory (AD) security is key to combatting insider abuse
- Which types of AD weaknesses inside attacks exploit—and how to spot them
- How to monitor for indicators of compromise (IOCs) that can reveal an in-progress attack
- How to quickly recover AD if necessary
- How to use post-breach forensics to close backdoors left by malicious insiders
