Why Is Having An Insider Risk Management (IRM) Program Critical?

  • Because the financial impacts to companies and other organizations can be severe (MILLIONS TO BILLIONS).
  • Because companies have had large layoffs or gone out of business because of the malicious actions of employees.
  • Because there continues to be a drastic increase in data theft, financial fraud, embezzlement, contracting fraud, bribery and kickbacks by malicious employees to support gambling addictions, or to live a lavish lifestyle.
