PERSONNEL SECURITY
The people that work for an organisation are its biggest asset. They may however also be its biggest threat. An insider is someone who misuses legitimate access, to commit a malicious act, or to damage their employer. Although the outcome may not always be intended by the individual, the outcomes are no less harmful to an organisation.
In addition to the damage caused by otherwise innocuous activities, infiltrators and other malicious actors may attempt to harm organisations or exploit another to do so on their behalf. While these activities have traditionally taken the form of the physical theft of property or information, insider acts now commonly involve the exploitation of an organisation's ICT structures.
ERG Investigators are highly experienced in managing serious and complex criminal and civil investigations and can offer a range of services to support you if you suspect an internal threat to your organization.

ERG PRE-CHECK TOOL
Modern organisations face an unprecedented challenge from insider threats. Insider incidents, ranging from data theft and fraud, to sabotage, can cause irreparable damage. Conventional recruitment methods, while focused on verifying qualifications, generally lack a robust mechanism to assess the subtle psychological, behavioural, and situational warning signs that precede such events. Moreover, in an era defined by rapid change and emerging crises, identifying candidates with strong crisis resilience has become equally critical.
​
Industry trends and documented security breaches have underscored that individuals who may appear benign during initial screening could later experience stress, manipulation, or other influences that lead to harmful actions. At the same time, resilient candidates, characterised by adaptability, emotional intelligence, and an aptitude for crisis management, can substantially contribute to an organisation’s ability to mitigate and respond to internal and external challenges. ERG has utilised a blend of Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning to address both aspects: ERG Pre-Check proactively reduces the risk of insider threats and concurrently identifies individuals whose inherent traits enhance overall crisis resilience.
