Insider threats are a worldwide problem for every U.S. organizations and the government who is in charge of deterring, mitigating, and preventing it. Since most organizations today have the potential to be exposed to insider threats, the lack of organizational preparedness to prevent and mitigate is apparent. The purpose of this research was to examine the role of organizational preparedness in the detection and prevention of malicious activities and attacks perpetrated by insider threats. This research also highlights the motivations and characteristics of insider threats, the overall impact of insider threats to U.S. organizations, and the measures organizations should employ to mitigate the insider threat risk. There are many sources that can cultivate an insider, and documented behavioral signs are used to help mitigate the attack. Trust is the most valuable commodity that an organization can have, and proves to be the most important aspect in mitigating insider threat. The importance of this research paper will discuss the benefits of mitigating insider threat and the negative impacts that it can have on an organization's system security. The research has determined, despite laws, various physical and logical countermeasures, cyber security policies, insider threat is still a big problem. The lack of awareness and training provide the biggest deficiency in combating the threat. With the rising insider threat problem that includes high profile espionage cases involving trusted insiders and government contractor personnel, the call for implementing new industrial security requirements is needed.
