Employee Monitoring Software

Activity Monitoring, User Behavior Analytics, Productivity Optimization & Insider Threat Detection in a Single Platform

Prevent Insider Threats with User Activity Monitoring and Behavioral Analytics

With cybersecurity attacks on the rise, many organizations have adopted certain measures to protect their data and systems, including antivirus, firewall, intrusion detection to protect infrastructure and IT assets. While these are generally effective in defending the organization from external threats, they fail to shield businesses from internal threat actors such as employees and other internal users, third-party vendors, contractors, and privileged administrators who already have access to an organization's valuable assets and sensitive data.

One insider's unguided behavior can expose an organization's intellectual property, financial records, customer data, PII, PHI, or other critical material. In fact, research shows that a majority of the data breaches in recent years involved weak or exploited employee credentials either by a malicious or accidental incident (source). StaffCop aims to help fill these gaps and provide a holistic insider threat prevention solution with features like Employee Monitoring, Privileged User Monitoring, Third-Party Monitoring, User and Entity Behavior Analytics (UEBA), Endpoint Security, etc.

User activity monitoring involves the process of tracking all user activity and behavior while they are logged into a computer (endpoint). By integrating a user monitoring solution into their operations, companies can keep an eye on their sensitive data, employees, and third-party entities such as contractors, remote and special/privileged users, identifying and preventing the misuse of company data and resources.

Besides the basic user monitoring and tracking functionality, StaffCop also covers intelligent behavior-based analysis to provide actionable insight and automated responses to employee-generated threats. It can capture violation incidents as forensic evidence and take action to alert appropriate authorities, thanks to its rules and policies.

Employee productivity measurement, risk analysis, and the prevention of unauthorized data exfiltration are other benefits of StaffCop's solution. Lastly, in the event of a data breach, we offer comprehensive forensic data and session recordings to identify the employees or vendors who have triggered a rule violation along with their activity footprint with pinpoint accuracy.

Real-Time Employee Monitoring

StaffCop allows companies to monitor all their employee activity for system objects like websites, applications, social media, IMs. Searches etc., in real-time for Windows, Mac, Virtual PCs, and Terminal Server.

User Behavior Analytics

Organizations can leverage StaffCop's intelligent behavior analysis to detect malicious activity and anomalies that suggest deviation from normal behavioral baseline.

Policy and Rules Engine

StaffCop offers users hundreds of pre-built rule templates, activity classification lists, and data categories to run the software instantly. Further, you can design your own policies and rules with an intuitive, visual rule editor and use natural English, regular expressions, and sample conditions to easily define your requirements. Creating monitoring profiles for individual employees, groups or departments is also possible with this solution.

Built-In Productivity Optimization

With these features, you can determine which apps and websites are productive and get in-depth reports on how your employees utilize them. Identify the laggards or high performers with active vs. idle time analysis and create a continuous feedback loop to refine and adjust your organizational workflow through tracking of schedules, projeсts, and more.

Audit and Forensics

StaffCop's audit and forensic functionality allow for video recording of employee activity, session recording, immutable logs, alerts, and much more. Combined, they offer a wide collection of investigation data to identify the source and insider threat with pinpoint accuracy.

Compliance Management

Companies can also leverage StaffCop to develop activity and schedule-based rules to support several common compliance requirements like implementing audit trails (GDPR), limiting unauthorized login (ISO 27001), prevent unencrypted file transfers (PCI DSS), reporting, etc.

StaffCop: Employee Monitoring Software with Powerful Insider Threat Detection and Productivity Analysis Features – How it works

User and entity behavior analytics (UEBA) is a crucial feature of StaffCop. UEBA's primary function is to identify and alert the organization to a wide range of unusual behavior and potential threats by either a malicious, inadvertent, or compromised employee, user, or third-party entity.

It performs this function by automatically creating a behavioral baseline factoring in a user's activity (i.e., how many times a user accessed a file), data pattern (file type, source, category, etc.), entity role (application, access level, domain, etc.) and other attributes (i.e., time of day, schedule, assigned project). Any anomaly or deviation from the normal baseline can prompt real-time alerts and notifications.

This UEBA capability is then combined with the Intelligent Policy & Rules Engine to proactively avert insider threats and at the same time provide the organizations with a clear and complete picture of all user and entity activity, context, and forensic evidence in a single solution.

Industry Statistics Prove the
Need for Employee Monitoring

Сolluding employees are the sources of insider threats

According to a report by the Community Emergency Response Team, the primary causes of insider incidents are collusion from employees and third-parties.

StaffCop delivers Immediate Business Benefits

Wide Visibility and Control

StaffCop visually records every action taken by an employee over 22 system objects, including screen, apps, websites, files, emails, etc. Each object can be configured to take into account what needs to be tracked and measured and who has access to the monitored records. With StaffCop, you can determine which employees or third-party vendors to monitor, how much you want to monitor, when and for how long - that way, you can have visibility into administrative activities and still respect employee privacy requirements as needed.

Detect Insider Threats and Vulnerabilities

Another crucial benefit of using StaffCop is that it allows you to identify high risks behaviors by insiders such as copying files to external drives, using cloud storage to share corporate files, downloading/opening files and attachments from unknown sources, etc. In other words, the software automatically detects when employees violate the rules or act outside the normal behavior. It notifies companies of their employee's activities, locks offending employees out from the system, or takes remote control of their computer before any malicious or fraudulent attempt.

Ensures Your Sensitive Data and Resources are Protected

This software solution minimizes information exfiltration and data compromise by malicious or ignorant employees with its numerous protective features. For instance, it prevents external drive usage, detects unusual or unauthorized network login or file transfers. And write rules that instantly respond to any observable employee activity like emails sent outside the company domain, printing certain sensitive documents, etc.

Boost Employee Productivity and Performance

With StaffCop's workforce productivity tools, organizations can track active vs. inactive time, late shifts, long breaks, etc. These tools also allow you to create etiquette rules to limit unproductive behavior. For instance, you can set a time limit on your employees' social media usage or restrict their access to gambling sites.

Monitor Privileged Employees and Third-Party Vendors

StaffCop functionality also encompasses preventing potential employee-employee or employee-third party collusion attempts. It allows organizations to create profiles for remote, privileged, external vendors and then define what information and system resources each profile can access.

Further, rules can be established by behavior policies so that access to sensitive information is determined by the organization's security policy or on a need-to-know basis. Rules can also be set up to notify the authorities of any suspicious privileged employee and third-party vendor activity, such as unscheduled and/or unauthorized changes to system configuration, creation of backdoor accounts, etc.
