Highlights of Our Training

Insider Risk Management Program 360 Framework & Assessment Methodology (IRMP360FAM™)

Since 2009, the Insider Threat Defense Group (ITDG) has been involved in U.S. Government, Department of Defense (DoD) and Intelligence Community Agencies Insider Threat Program efforts.

From 2009 to 2011, the ITDG was under contract with the DoD Insider Threat Counterintelligence Group (ITCIG) to provide guidance in various areas of Insider Risk Management. The DoD ITCIG in collaboration with other agencies (NCIX – NCSC, NSA, CIA, NGA, NRO,) were instrumental in developing what is known as National Insider Threat Policy.

The ITDG Insider Risk Management Program (IRMP) Framework was initially developed in 2014 with the help of National Insider Threat Special Interest Group members, and individuals managing and supporting Insider Threat Programs for the DoD and Intelligence Community Agencies.

The IRMP Framework has undergone several enhancements over the years and provides comprehensive guidance for IRMP Development, Management, Evaluation and Optimization, for both the U.S. Government and private sector businesses. From the inception the IRMP Framework has EXCEEDED compliance regulations. It is continuously being evaluated and updated due to the ever changing Insider Threat landscape. The IRMP Framework is practical, real world, cost effective, proven, unique and holistic..

Since 2014, the IRMP Framework has served as the backbone for our training and consulting services. The ITDG is a pioneer and visionary in the field of Insider Risk Management. In 2014, the ITDG was one of the first companies to offer comprehensive Insider Threat Program Development / Management Training to the U.S. Government and defense contractors, who were required to implement programs based of off National Insider Threat Policy and NISPOM Conforming Change 2 regulations.

The IRMP Framework encompasses 11 critical domains for Insider Risk Management and an IRMP. Our methodology addresses Insider risks and threats from an enterprise cross functional perspective, and from a non-technical and technical perspective. No one in an organization is positioned to see every single employee risk factor or behavioral indicator. Ensuring that enterprise security foundations are in place, and that there is universal alignment and collaboration with key stakeholders and the IRMP, is a critical element for detecting, responding to, investigating, preventing and mitigating Insider risks and threats.

Our IRMP Framework covers Insider Risk Management from A to Z, to enhance the security foundations of the organization, and to prevent operational disruptions, downtime, loss of productivity, loss of income, loss of assets, prevent workplace violence, legal exposure, etc. from the negligent, disgruntled, malicious and opportunist actions of employees.

The ITDG has empowered organizations with the ability to implement, manage and optimize a comprehensive and cost effective IRMP, transforming the Insider Threat problem from a siloed REACTIVE task into a shared PROACTIVE organizational responsibility.

The comprehensive nature of our IRMP Framework and 15+ years of IRMP expertise, is what separates us from other providers of IRMP training and consulting services, and is why the ITDG is considered a trusted provider for IRMP training and consulting services to over 700+ organizations. (U.S. Government, Private Sector Companies).
