Why Insider Threats Are One of Your Biggest Cybersecurity Risks

Most organizations focus on threats from the outside—but what about the risks that already live inside your network?

Whether it's a disgruntled employee, a careless user, or a compromised account, insider threats pose a serious risk to your data, operations, and reputation.

The Solution? A Layered Insider Threat Defense Strategy with viLogics

We don’t just protect your business—we help you detect, prevent, and respond to insider threats in real time.

 

🔐 1. Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA)

"Never trust, always verify"

  • Enforces per-user, per-application access
  • Prevents lateral movement inside your network
  • Limits exposure even if credentials are compromised

Built-in with viLogics TSO 365 platform

 

👁 2. User Behavior Analytics (UBA)

Detect unusual or risky behavior fast

  • Tracks how users interact with systems and data
  • Flags anomalies like file hoarding or off-hours access
  • Detects early signs of malicious intent or insider compromise

Monitored by viLogics’ 24/7 Security Operations Center (SOC)

 

🔒 3. Data Loss Prevention (DLP)

Stop sensitive data from leaking—accidentally or intentionally

  • Controls what data can be emailed, downloaded, printed, or shared
  • Blocks unauthorized transfers to USB, cloud drives, etc.
  • Tailored to your compliance requirements (HIPAA, CMMC, NIST)

Customized DLP policies by viLogics security engineers

 

🔁 4. Identity & Access Management (IAM)

Give users only what they need—nothing more

  • Role-based access controls (RBAC)
  • Multi-factor authentication (MFA)
  • Monitors and logs privileged access

IAM integrated into your overall viLogics cybersecurity strategy

Shawn Long – Founder & CEO, viLogics Shawn Long is a seasoned entrepreneur and the Founder and CEO of viLogics, a leading managed cybersecurity service provider specializing in multi-cloud security and cloud hosting. Throughout his career, Long has built and led high-growth organizations, demonstrating a keen ability to innovate in the evolving technology landscape. After earning a bachelor’s degree in Polymer Engineering, Long began his career as a cellular network engineer at Verizon Wireless. However, his entrepreneurial spirit soon led him to launch his first startup in 1996—Electronic Claims Processing (ECP). ECP served as a data-processing clearinghouse for healthcare claims, providing software and hardware solutions for medical and dental firms. In 2008, during the financial crisis, ECP leveraged its strong financial position to acquire MedcomSoft, a publicly traded electronic health records company listed on the TSX under the symbol MFT. Under Long’s leadership, MedcomSoft transitioned into a private entity and experienced remarkable growth, expanding its national presence by 358% over five years. Recognizing a growing demand for enterprise IT security solutions, Long founded viLogics as a sister company to provide comprehensive managed cybersecurity services. Early key clients included Dell Training Services and IBM Global Services, focusing on VMware online training support. By 2014, Long shifted his full attention to his passion—cybersecurity and cloud hosting. He sold MedcomSoft to Harris Computer Systems and positioned viLogics as a premier managed cybersecurity service provider. Today, viLogics delivers cutting-edge solutions, with a core emphasis on cloud-to-endpoint data protection through its flagship offering, Total Secure Office (TSO). In addition to his extensive industry experience, Long holds a range of top-tier certifications from Microsoft, VMware, Veeam, Fortinet, IBM, EMC, Dell, and AWS, solidifying his expertise in the cybersecurity and cloud technology sectors.
