This guide contrasts ad-hoc insider threat investigations with Proofpoint Insider Threat Management (ITM). It shows how manual processes are slow, fragmented, and costly, often taking months to resolve and averaging $11.45M per incident. By comparison, Proofpoint ITM enables proactive hunting and efficient investigations with contextual intelligence, timeline views, and visual evidence. Case studies highlight how alerts tied to risky behaviors (e.g., unauthorized file transfers) can be quickly validated, documented, and shared with legal and HR teams. The report stresses ITM’s ability to reduce mean time to detect and respond, cutting both financial and reputational risks.
