Outbound email and non-malicious insiders:  Reducing the risk of data loss and information security incidents


On-demand webinar 

The Information Commissioner’s Office latest security trends report shows, once again, that misdirected emails are the number one cause of reported security incidents.

Despite the focus on incoming phishing email training and awareness, outbound email use has seen a significant uptick during 2020, increasing the risk of non-malicious insiders causing a data breach from sending the wrong file to the wrong recipient.

Remote working similarly creates challenges for information security leaders in addressing and eliminating this risk, especially where users are unaware sensitive data has been leaked, and are unwilling and unencouraged to come forward.

In this short webinar, information security leaders will discuss encouraging cultural change to improve communication from their remote colleagues of potential security incidents; how they are adapting their training and discipline to reduce the risk from increased outbound email; and best-practice in identifying the non-malicious and non-accidental insider.
