Insider Threat
Management Software
Insider threats start off small. Syteca helps you stop them early.
Why insider threats slip through the cracks
Lack of visibility
Over 90% of security professionals say insider threats are as hard or even harder to detect than external attacks, yet only 30% of organizations are equipped with dedicated insider threat prevention tools.

Excessive user privileges
Credential abuse is the most common attack vector, accounting for 22% of all data breaches.

2025 Data Breach Investigations Report by Verizon
Organizations often grant excessive and standing access rights, which amplify consequences in the event of compromise.
Manual investigations
Sifting through logs and screenshots without context slows response time.
Insider incidents take an average of 81 days to contain. Incidents that remain unresolved for over 91 days cost organizations $18.7M on average.3

FAQ
An insider threat is the potential for someone with authorized access to an organization’s critical assets to abuse that access and harm the organization.
The nature of an insider threat can be:
1. Malicious — harming your organization on purpose by exposing, stealing, or damaging your sensitive assets.
2. Inadvertent — posing an unintentional threat due to human error, for example, neglecting security policies or opening phishing emails.
Whether malicious or accidental, insider threats can lead to data breaches, financial losses, compliance violations, and reputational damage.
Some of the most common insider threat indicators include:
- Unusual login times (e.g., during nights or weekends)
- Attempts to access sensitive data outside the scope of a role
- Large data downloads and transfers
- Use of unauthorized storage devices like USBs
- Disabling or bypassing security controls
- Use of anonymizing tools
- Accessing systems not typically used by the individual
- Installing unsanctioned software.
Syteca can instantly alert your security team about suspicious user activities, enabling early threat detection and swift response before any damage is done.
Preventing insider threats requires a comprehensive approach that combines technology, proactive policies, and employee awareness. Here are some key steps that can help you prevent insider threats:
- Implement the principle of least privilege — Ensure employees only have access to the data and systems needed in their roles. Regularly review and revoke unnecessary privileges.
- Monitor user activity — Use solutions like Syteca to monitor user activity in real time, detect anomalies, and receive alerts on suspicious actions.
- Control privileged accounts — Secure admin accounts with approval workflows, one-time passwords, and time-bound access.
- Educate employees — Conduct regular security training to raise awareness about secure data handling, password hygiene, and common attack tactics.
- Automate threat detection — Use alert rules and automated incident response to detect and block malicious actions early.
- Apply information security policies — Enforce policies for file transfers, USB use, and email attachments to reduce the risk of unintentional leaks.
The main goal of deploying an insider threat protection solution is to detect and address incidents caused by insiders as quickly as possible. By doing so, organizations can prevent data leaks or at least minimize the consequences of a security incident.
Syteca incorporates an extensive set of insider threat detection and protection tools to significantly enhance your cybersecurity program. Our platform provides helpful insights into the activity of regular employees, privileged users, and third parties. Being able to see who is doing what is essential for the early detection of possible insider threats.
While insider threats can affect any organization, the following industries are at particularly high risk due to the sensitivity and volume of data they handle:
Syteca detects and responds to insider threats by providing full visibility into user activity, identifying anomalies, and enabling rapid incident response. Here’s how it works:
- Real-time activity monitoring
Syteca continuously tracks all user actions across endpoints, servers, and virtual environments. It provides full-session recordings, allowing security teams to monitor live sessions or review past events.
- Alerting
Actions considered “suspicious” immediately trigger alerts to notify security teams of potential insider risks. You can use built-in and customizable alert rules.
- Incident response
When risky activity is detected, Syteca can automatically block sessions, lock users out, or send warning messages to them.
- Detailed forensic evidence
Every alert is backed by rich forensic data, including session videos, timelines, and logs. This helps you conduct thorough investigations, support audits, and improve future threat detection.
Together, these capabilities allow Syteca to catch insider threats early and respond quickly — no matter whether they’re due to negligence, account compromise, or malicious intent.
No. Syteca doesn’t disturb employees’ work while monitoring user activity.
The only scenario in which Syteca will interrupt a user’s work is when the user acts suspiciously. For instance, the system can be configured to send notifications explaining to a user that they have performed a particular action that violates cybersecurity policies. Your security team can also manually block suspicious sessions, users, and actions after receiving notifications from Syteca, or you can automate this process for securing the most critical assets.
Yes. Syteca monitors the activity of admins and other privileged users. Our insider threat detection tools can also help you with privileged access management, account and session management, auditing privileged user activity, and responding to suspicious actions of privileged users.
Yes, you can deploy Syteca to manage insider risks posed by remote workers as well. In particular, you can utilize the platform to:
- Monitor remote employee activity in real time
- Review video and audio records of remote user sessions
- Verify the identities of remote users with multi-factor authentication
- Configure access rights for each user or group of users
- Manually approve requests to access your most critical assets
- Leverage instant alerts to detect suspicious events and respond to them manually or automatically
Syteca is designed to balance strong security with respect for employee privacy and productivity. To protect privacy, Syteca includes a pseudonymization mode, which hides employee identities during monitoring. You can opt to reveal identities only when a security incident occurs, thus maintaining both transparency and trust.
Our platform is also the first-to-market solution that masks sensitive data in recordings and during live session viewing. Syteca automatically detects and obscures predefined data types, such as credentials, credit card numbers, and SSNs.
As for productivity impact, Syteca agents work silently in the background, without disrupting users’ workflows.
Yes. Syteca can be set up to monitor users in a way that adheres to regional privacy laws. It can hide personally identifiable information using features like pseudonymization. You can also set Syteca to mask sensitive on-screen data like passwords or financial information.

There is no one-size-fits-all answer to this question. Which insider threat detection tools are “right” for you depends on a variety of factors, including the specific needs and requirements of your organization. However, there are some tools that a quality insider threat detection solution should provide:
- Real-time alerts and automatic incident response: An effective solution should provide real-time alerts when suspicious activity is detected. Syteca incorporates both pre-installed and custom alerts, as well as the functionality to automatically respond to insider threats by blocking user accounts or killing applications and processes related to suspicious activity.
- Audit and reporting: Auditing and reporting capabilities can help your security team investigate incidents and generate compliance reports. Syteca offers a wide variety of reports to enable your security officers to get a complete picture of your organization’s cybersecurity landscape at a glance.
