This explains why more than 60% of the companies surveyed are focused on detection and prevention.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify\"><b>Insider Threats and Security Analytics<\/b><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In the Insider Threat Survey, Gurucul notes very few companies take no action to prevent insider threats.

Moreover, more comprehensive security analytics also monitor devices and privileged accounts, both of which prove essential. <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">According to the provider, the most important approach to fighting insider threats is to be predictive and proactive.
