Training: The Backbone of All Insider Risk Programmes

All employees should understand the urgency of insider risk and the role they play in its mitigation. Training can be a decisive element here. It builds the right attitude towards insider risk and equips people to act upon signals appropriately.

Coworkers often recall red flags after insider incidents but never reported them. Doing so may have allowed the organisation to intervene and prevent damaging acts.

Case Database/Storytelling

Insider risk cases are a powerful tool for raising awareness and embedding an insider risk programme through storytelling. These cases should be structured as research shows that people retain information up to 40% more reliably and accurately when it’s presented this way compared to free-form information. We build client-specific case databases and teaching decks for leadership and specialists that allow them to extract the takeaways for their organisation.

More generally, Signpost Six has been developing a database of insider risk cases since 2016, sharing the most interesting ones in our monthly newsletters. Our primary focus is on European data theft cases and we include cases pending in court and acquittals, as those cases also contain lessons and cautionary tales.

Leadership Training

Our specialist training for line managers and HR professionals is proactive and innovative, bringing together security, psychology, and management science. We can help you minimise insider risk by building a culture of psychological safety and cognitive diversity. By focusing on the ‘concerning behaviour’ stage of the Critical Pathway to Insider Risk, we help leaders learn how to uncover hidden problems and drive performance.

This course will help trainees:

ADDRESS concerning behaviour proactively, safely and creatively rather than employing dated, traditional, reactive and adversarial techniques
UNDERSTAND and address concerning behaviour using the mindset of psychological safety and cognitive diversity
UNCOVER data sources that can improve organisational performance and innovation
