Abstract :

The pandemic has made companies adopt remote work policies and convert to cloud-based technologies. This adoption has helped the companies to continue the business without disruption, but this has also increased the risks for the companies. One of the critical risks among them is Insider Threats. Due to the Remote work option, employees can access the data without any surveillance monitoring. This privilege might lead to stealing or misuse of the data. This Paper will provide the Risks associated with the adoption of the Remote work Policy and Insider Threats. This Paper also provides a solution to mitigate these Insider threats by utilizing Robust Insider Threat monitoring tools to protect sensitive data and improve the Organization's security posture in this Hybrid work Model.
