"Cybersecurity: IMC2 Researchers Mobilize to Counter Insider Threats"

Polytechnique Montréal has announced a cybersecurity project to prevent insider threats. Through the Multidisciplinary Institute for Cybersecurity and Cyber Resilience (IMC2), experts from Polytechnique Montréal, HEC Montréal, and Université de Montréal will develop a solution for this issue. Every employee, consultant, and third party with access to a company's computer systems represents a potential entry point for a cyberattack or intrusion. Whether malicious, careless, or simply unaware, these users increasingly serve as the entry point for cybercriminals. According to IBM, the number of incidents caused by insider threats more than tripled between 2016 and 2020, and this trend will likely continue. The goal of the Insider Threat Alliance Project is to develop a long-term solution to combat these threats. This article continues to discuss the Insider Threat Alliance Project.
