Three shapes of insider risk. One very fast exit.
Accidental sensitive-data leakage. Deliberate data exfiltration. Misuse of legitimate access. AI did not invent any of them — it made each one a paste away. The Privilege AI Agent sees the transfer on the workstation and alerts legal before it becomes a matter.
The insider already has access. The question is what leaves with it.
Most insider incidents are not malicious: a log with customer tokens pasted into a troubleshooting chat, a supplier scorecard shared through a tool other suppliers can reach. The malicious minority is expensive in a different way — a departing employee or a compromised account exporting trade secrets to personal storage, with a trade-secret and confidentiality claim to follow.
Both need the same two things: a sensor on the device that sees the transfer as it happens, and a legal response that is privileged from the first minute.
Same sensor. Different response.
Customer logs and service tokens pasted into external AI. Supplier bank details entering an unauthorized workflow. The employee thinks they are doing their job well.
A departing insider or compromised account exports internal IP, customer lists, or employee records to personal storage or a personal AI account.
A buyer shares one supplier's prices with another. An analyst runs employee pay data through an unapproved tool. Access was granted; the use was not.
The roles with the most access, and the least supervision.
See the transfer. Alert legal. Respond under privilege.
Detects exports to personal storage and personal AI accounts, credential and token exposure, and misuse of legitimate access — 120+ categories — and alerts legal and compliance with the evidence preserved.
Privilege AI AgentInsider detections are routed to counsel, not just the SOC — so preservation, legal hold, and any employment action start under legal direction.
Privilege WatchHR, security, and counsel work the incident in one privileged session — the chronology, the interview notes, the decision — with every step on the record.

An accidental upload or suspected misuse of access can trigger operational, employment, and legal questions at once. Surface the concern for review, preserve relevant records, and let counsel determine the legal purpose and scope of any investigation. The original event and its logs do not become privileged simply because legal opens a matter.
