Minneapolis, MN — September 7, 2022 — / BackupReview.info / — Code42 Software, Inc.®, the Insider Risk Management (IRM) leader, today launched a new integration between its two leading IRM solutions – Instructor and Incydr – to accelerate and scale in-the-moment response to risky employee behaviors. The new capability allows security, compliance and education teams to immediately send corrective lessons triggered by employee actions that create risk for the business. For example, when the Code42 Incydr™ product flags file movement to an untrusted location, like an unauthorized cloud application, a Code42 Instructor™ micro-learning solution video specifically explaining the correct activity is sent to educate the employee in real-time.
By using Instructor in tandem with Incydr to send responsive lessons, security professionals are able to educate users on security mistakes immediately when they occur. Templated communications and the ability to send within Incydr allows analysts to scale and save time when it comes to low and moderate alerts, which are often accidental, and for which education is the appropriate response. With this approach, security teams can spend more time on higher severity events that present an increased risk to the business while still providing a hands-on, human experience for their colleagues.
“Just because the vast majority of Insider Risk events are accidental, doesn’t mean they won’t impact the business or don’t require correction. The trick is how to respond quickly and contextually, without overburdening your security team. This is the exact reason we created Instructor risk reduction trainings and have embedded them as a key response control implemented by Incydr,” said Dave Capuano, senior vice president of product management at Code42.
“We know employee education is a critical, and often overlooked, element to holistic Insider Risk Management programs. Delivering Instructor lessons through Incydr reduces risk in two complementary ways: (1) the majority of employees will immediately correct whatever action they took to trigger the video; and (2) because you’ve given information contextually, they’re more likely to understand why their action was risky, preventing future risky behavior and reducing data risk events over time,” concluded Capuano.
Together, Incydr and Instructor enable security teams to effectively manage the dynamic nature of Insider Risk – which includes prioritizing and responding appropriately to the risks that matter the most. While Incydr surfaces the top indicators of Insider Risk and gathers detailed security intelligence about file movements to both trusted and untrusted locations, Instructor provides a customized, one-click response to the majority of Insider Risk events.
According to a 2021 survey by Code42 and CyberSecurity Insiders, 71% of security leaders reported that they are most concerned about an inadvertent [negligent or accidental] data leak. And they’re right to be worried: risk from insiders is pervasive and can account for the loss of up to 20% of annual revenue. At a time when employees average 13 data exposure events per user per day, security teams require scalable solutions that focus on contextual education.
