The now pervasive nature of remote and hybrid work, coupled with departing employees amid workforce volatility, present unique challenges to keep an organization’s data safe from both external and internal threats. Nearly three-quarters (71%) of organizations are unaware of just how much sensitive data their departing employees typically take with them. Additionally, more than 1/3 of organizations don’t have an Insider Risk response plan, and 63% of companies don’t measure the success of Insider Risk detection.
Code42 is the Insider Risk Management leader. Native to the cloud, the Code42® Incydr™ solution rapidly detects data loss, leaks and theft and speeds incident response – all without lengthy deployments, complex policy management or blocking employee productivity. More than 50,000 organizations worldwide, including recognized brands in business and education, rely on Code42 to safeguard their ideas.
For organizations looking for a new approach to data security, Code42 is leading the charge and boldly creating a new data security category – Insider Risk Management (IRM). Its Insider Risk Management solution, Incydr, offers organizations an easier, faster way to secure their endpoint and cloud from employee hire to exit. A cloud-based SaaS solution, Incydr can detect risky file activity across on and off-network computers, the cloud and email without rigid policies and classification, and long and costly deployments.
How we are different
- Code42 has played a defining role in developing a vision and requirements for the Insider Risk Management category – now recognized by Gartner, IDC and Forrester. This is validated by its inclusion in the Gartner 2022 Market Guide for Insider Risk Management Solutions report, where Code42 was identified as a Representative Vendor for the second year in a row. Code42 is also a founding member of the Insider Risk Summit, the industry’s leading conference on IRM, and Insider Risk Community. Code42 was the recipient of 18 industry awards this year.
- In 2022, Code42 launched a new integration between its two leading IRM solutions – Instructor and Incydr – to accelerate and scale in-the-moment response to risky employee behaviors. The new capability allows security, compliance and education teams to immediately send corrective lessons triggered by employee actions that create risk for the business.Together, Incydr and Instructor enable security teams to effectively manage the dynamic nature of Insider Risk – which includes prioritizing and responding appropriately to the risks that matter the most. While Incydr surfaces the top indicators of Insider Risk and gathers detailed security intelligence about file movements to both trusted and untrusted locations, Instructor provides a customized, one-click response to the majority of Insider Risk events.
- Code42 is an active member of Pledge 1%, a global movement that creates a new normal for companies to integrate giving back into the core of their business. Since 2018, Code42 has devoted one percent of its equity, profits and its employees’ time to help improve communities where its employees live and work. Building on this initiative, the company launched the Code42 Foundation in 2018, which distributes funds to organizations whose mission is to address systemic inequities and strive to make lasting, impactful change.
