Course Details
Course Overview
Purview for Insider Risk Management is a one-day intensive that takes insider risk, HR, legal, and security operations practitioners from policy design through to a working operating model that holds up under OAIC investigation, APRA CPS 234 review, and Fair Work scrutiny. You will configure Insider Risk Management policy templates, sequence detection, and risk levels; integrate the HR connector for automated risk scoring; triage and investigate alerts through complete case management workflows; collect and preserve evidence from alert to resolution under the Australian Privacy Act; and deploy Adaptive Protection to auto-graduate dynamic DLP controls based on real-time user risk scores. The programme is grounded in Microsoft Learn guidance updated through 2025 and 2026, OAIC Notifiable Data Breaches scheme guidance, and the Fair Work Act constraints on employee monitoring.
