Insider Risk & Workplace Investigations
Detect and investigate the threat that holds a badge.
The executive challenge
The problem this program solves
Everyone owns a piece of insider risk and nobody owns the consequence: three lines of defence that produce reports, not readiness. Every unpriced insider risk exposure is a subsidy paid out of future earnings — quietly, until it is not. You leave with a resilience blueprint that names your tolerances, tests your recovery and tells the board the truth.
Context
Why this matters now
Capability
What you will be able to do
- Design a insider risk risk architecture that anticipates rather than documents.
- Build insider risk resilience: continuity, recovery and the capacity to absorb shocks.
- Price insider risk risk into strategy, capital and operating decisions.
- Report insider risk to the board in a way that informs decisions rather than reassures them.
The IPAT Course Standard
The five-day journey
Each day is a deliberate progression in managerial capability — from strategic context, to analytical frameworks, to applied practice, to executive judgement under pressure, to a capstone that produces something your organisation keeps.
IPAT Signature Case™
Friday, 21:40
A a national health insurer is hit by a ransomware event with insider risk systems only partially segmented. The attackers threaten to release customer data; the board wants service restored, the regulator wants answers, and the media already has a source.
Your decision: In the first two hours: payment posture, restoration sequence, disclosure — and who commands the insider risk response.
IPAT Data Lab™
The insider risk incidents at a port authority are individually small and collectively serious — and no one has connected them.
Dataset: Synthetic multi-year incident, near-miss and control data for a port authority.
Your task: Build the heat map, test the tolerances, and write the 4 a.m. command card for the top exposure.
A insider risk heat map, impact tolerances and an incident command card.
Data → Analysis → Decision, not Data → Code → Certificate
