Insider Risk & Zero-Trust Verification

Zero-Trust controls aren’t bulletproof. See whether your employees have the ability to infer sensitive insights from LLM responses.

The Scenario

You’ve rolled out least-privilege groups, created network segments, and granted conditional access. But if someone asks Copilot:

“Summarise current R&D cost-cutting plans and their HR impact.”

Copilot’s seemingly-harmless answers risk exposing strategies you can’t find in one file. Security needs proof that Zero-Trust also holds at the knowledge layer, not just the network layer.

How It Works

Clone Real Personas

Create copies of interns, contractors, or power users without impacting production.

Launch Insider-Style Prompts

Probe finance, HR, IP, and exec topics through Copilot/Glean.

Detect Segmentation Issues

Knostic flags risky answers and maps how they happen across employee boundaries.

Evaluate Insider Risk

Sort and filter by department, role, sensitivity level, or user context.

Fix & Verify

One click tightens labels and shores up your LLM to end oversharing.

Key Benefits for your team

Knowledge-Layer Validation

Confirm whether segmentation truly blocks inference of sensitive information.

Early-Warning Signals

Highlight low-privilege users who can still piece together sensitive insights.

Executive-Ready Dashboards

Make it easy to track and manage risk levels over time.

Self-Regulation

Apply fixes and prove success without waiting for the next audit.

Combined, these capabilities prove (or disprove) your Zero-Trust posture at the speed of AI.

No-Code Deployment

Connects to M365 and AI tools in minutes, so you can get started faster.

Knowledge Oversharing Detection

Analyzes the information your LLM can access to uncover how sensitive information can be inferred.

Real-Time Knowledge Controls

Validates your adjustments and ensures the leaks you’ve blocked stay blocked.

Security Control Feedback Loop

Identifies each failed Zero-Trust boundary, fixes it, and can retest to ensure the leak is sealed.

Audit Trail of Knowledge Access

Stores a tamper-proof log of prompts, sources, and risks.
