Protect Your Organisation Against The Insider Threat
Working alone or as part of an organised crime gang, a single dishonest individual can steal data, introduce malware and ransomware, embezzle finances, and destroy a company's reputation.
Cifas’ Insider Threat Protect is the only solution in the UK that helps you identify and stop dishonest conduct by job applicants and employees within the workplace. Using our solution organisations can search against thousands of fraud risk cases at any stage in the employee life-cycle – from recruitment to retirement.
The Insider Threat Database (formerly the Internal Fraud Database) is the only database in the UK that records instances of dishonest conduct by job applicants and employees in the workforce, helping employers and recruiters identify potential threats to their organisation and protect their workforce, shareholders and customers.
The Insider Threat Database holds fraud risk data relating to internal fraud threats, such as bribery and corruption, theft of personal and/or commercial data, customer account fraud and false applications (including fake qualifications).
Our community records subjects suspected of dishonest conduct against their organisation to the Insider Threat Database, enabling other members to screen job applicants and employees against this data. As part of your membership relevant search results from the National Fraud Database can also be returned.
If a match is made against an individual, the organisation can make an informed decision on how to proceed.
The Insider Threat Database can be deployed at any stage in the employee life-cycle, from recruitment to retirement:
- Recruitment: Screen job applicants 'at the gate'.
- On-boarding: Integrate into your probation process.
- Development: Identify those who could be experiencing difficulties that may make them susceptible to committing fraud, to limit your exposure and the damage to your business.
- Retention: Annual checks both warn and reassure present and future employees, customers and stakeholders that you take internal fraud seriously.
- Exit: Flag those who may pose a risk during redundancy or when retiring.
The Insider Threat Protect Solution has additional features to ensure that not only can you work with our data, but that our data works for you. Read about those features below or download our Insider Threat Protect Brochure.
