QKS Group Reveals That the Insider Risk Management Market Is Set to Grow at a CAGR of 16.30% by 2028

Organizations worldwide rely extensively on third parties—including vendors, suppliers, and contractors—to reduce operational costs, increase profitability, accelerate time to market, and enhance productivity. As a result, large volumes of sensitive information, such as personally identifiable information (PII), are shared across external networks. This growing exchange significantly elevates the risk of data exposure and breaches.

With globalization and digital transformation accelerating, enterprises are increasingly outsourcing critical functions like payroll, IT services, and customer support. However, a security incident at any third-party partner can lead to unauthorized access, theft, or misuse of confidential data. This heightened dependency has made Insider Risk Management (IRM) solutions essential for mitigating internal and third-party threats.

Insider Risk Management platforms offer holistic monitoring and analysis of user behavior—both within the organization and across its vendor ecosystem. By providing deep visibility into activity patterns and potential vulnerabilities, these solutions strengthen overall security posture and help organizations maintain regulatory compliance. Implementing IRM enables companies to proactively assess risks, manage vendor exposure, and ensure robust protection of sensitive information.
