Previous Engagments

A Chief Information Security Officer and Risk Officer at a mid-sized financial institution seek to enhance their existing cybersecurity framework with specialized insider threat controls.

While their organization has robust external threat defenses, they recognize that 58% of financial institutions experienced insider-related incidents in the past 24 months, with privileged credential abuse representing the highest risk vector (37% of cases).

The engagement begins with a comprehensive assessment including governance, procedures, employee contracts, and the review of existing security tools (SIEM, UEBA, DLP, IAM) to identify gaps in insider threat detection. The LeastTrust ControlSet integrates with current infrastructure while adding behavioral analytics, real-time interventions, and forensic capture.

A venture capital firm managing 50+ portfolio companies seeks to implement standardized insider threat controls internally while creating a deployable framework for their investments.

Portfolio companies often lack mature data protection programs, creating vulnerability to IP theft during critical growth phases or co-founder exits. The VC needs a scalable solution that can be rapidly deployed across diverse company sizes and industries.

The custom control set provides a modular, cloud-based framework that starts with the VC's internal operations as a proof of concept. Once validated, the same controls, policies, and governance structures are packaged as a standardized offering for portfolio companies.

The HR leadership at a large corporation (10,000+ employees) recognizes that employee awareness and culture are critical to preventing insider threats, particularly negligent data handling.

Traditional security training has low engagement rates and fails to address sensitive data handling. The organization needs to shift from punitive approaches to creating a culture of data stewardship while maintaining employee satisfaction.

The platform emphasizes proactive education, visible deterrents, and positive reinforcement. Implementation includes role-based training modules, real-time coaching through managed browser warnings and document watermarks, and gamification of security behaviors.
