Insider Threats from Disgruntled or Compromised Employees

2 Jun, 2025

The Problem

Employees under stress or facing grievances may intentionally leak sensitive data—or be tempted by outside offers. Even one document in the wrong hands can inflict lasting damage. These insider threats are difficult to detect and even harder to contain once the data has left your environment.

GuardWare PROTECT Solution

GuardWare PROTECT ensures that your sensitive files remain under strict access control—even within your organization. Every file is encrypted and governed by policies tied to specific users, devices, and timeframes. If an employee tries to share, copy, or upload a protected file externally, it remains encrypted and unreadable. Access can be revoked instantly, ensuring your data doesn’t leave with them—no matter the reason for their departure.
