DE.CM-03.280

Has your organization implemented behavior analytics software to detect anomalous user activity for insider threat detection?

Explanation

Behavior analytics tools establish baseline patterns of normal user activity and can identify deviations that may indicate insider threats such as unauthorized access, data exfiltration, or account compromise. These solutions analyze various data points including login times, access patterns, file operations, and network activities to flag suspicious behaviors that warrant investigation. Effective implementation requires proper configuration, continuous tuning, and integration with your security operations workflow. Evidence could include documentation of the deployed behavior analytics solution (such as UEBA tools), screenshots of the system dashboard showing active monitoring, sample alerts or reports generated by the system, and written procedures for responding to detected anomalies.

ResponseHub is the product I wish I had when I was a CTO

Previously I was co-founder and CTO of Progression, a VC backed HR-tech startup used by some of the biggest names in tech.

As our sales grew, security questionnaires quickly became one of my biggest pain-points. They were confusing, hard to delegate and arrived like London busses - 3 at a time!

I'm building ResponseHub so that other teams don't have to go through this. Leave the security questionnaires to us so you can get back to closing deals, shipping product and building your team.
