Security and Employee Investigations: Breaking Down the Big Brother Security Myth

Ivanti: Cybersecurity and Information Technology Solutions Season 3 Episode 37

Daniel Spicer is back! Following up on last episode's discussion on the security risks of overemployment, Ivanti's Chief Security Officer returns to clear up the age-old myth of security tools being abused for employee investigations. Join Daniel, Chris and Ashley as they discuss:

  • What is (and most definitely is not) allowed in an employee investigation -- especially if the Security Team is requested to assist
  • User and management's misconceptions about security data, and how it's less "Big Brother," and more "Death by Data" 
  • The invaluable technique of using HR and Legal both to cover your asks and avoid abuse of security tools during investigations
  • How you're more likely to investigate an employee due to a media outlet's DMCA request than overemployment
  • What a manager's "tipping point" is to request a more robust employee investigation, and what would trigger Security to get involved

Join us for another episode in which empathetic management and a sympathetic legal department might be the best security tools you'll ever deploy when it comes to cracking down on bad employee behavior -- well, that, and a solid VPN / MDM combo.
