December 31, 2019

An organization’s human layer is its people.

And this risk that people pose to sensitive information is only growing. The traditional security perimeter has disappeared with the adoption of cloud technology and flexible working practices that see staff, partners, and clients accessing data and applications via a range of devices and from multiple locations (potentially even from across the globe). This has led to an increased need for human layer security — technology such as contextual machine learning and artificial intelligence (AI), which can detect abnormal behavior to prevent breaches before they happen.
