Legacy ERP Systems are Susceptible to Insider Security Threats
Insider security threats are becoming more frequent and more costly to organizations. According to the Verizon Insider Threat Report, 57% of data breaches are caused by trusted insiders with access to sensitive data. The Ponemon Institute calculates the average cost per insider incident is $11.45 million. The privileged access and knowledge of company operations make insider threats one of the most common yet elusive risks to manage. Not all insiders are disgruntled employees, and their motivations, intent, and access levels vary. Regardless of who they are, an insider who intentionally or unintentionally violates a business or security policy can inflict plenty of damage. Legacy ERP applications were not designed to help you detect insider threats.
Limitations of Traditional Security
- Security teams struggle to determine the difference between regular user activity and anomalous activity.
- Access governance is challenging in remote environments due to users accessing from unknown networks.
- Insiders usually know how to bypass controls and violate security policies without fear of being discovered.
- Legacy ERP applications lack the ability to provide granular insights into user activity.
- Native ERP logs must be manually checked and correlated, making frequent audits nearly impossible.
