Cyber threats evolve relentlessly, and while most organizations focus on external attacks like ransomware or phishing, the reality is that many incidents originate inside the organization itself. Whether through human error, negligence, or malicious intent, insider threats have become one of the most pressing cybersecurity challenges.

For Managed Service Providers (MSPs), the risk is even greater. They are responsible not only for one client’s IT environment, but for many at once, multiplying the attack surface. To mitigate this, MSPs need solutions that can detect, prevent, and respond to insider threats proactively. This is where Teramind stands out as a powerful platform that gives MSPs a decisive competitive edge.

What is Teramind?
Teramind is an advanced User Activity Monitoring (UAM) and User and Entity Behavior Analytics (UEBA) solution that records, monitors, and analyzes user activity across an organization. Its mission is simple but critical: detect abnormal behavior, prevent data leaks, and ensure compliance.

Rather than merely logging events, Teramind provides granular, real-time visibility into what happens in critical systems—from database queries to file transfers and email communications.

Key Features for MSPs

• Real-time monitoring: tracks applications, websites, files, and system activity.
• Data Loss Prevention (DLP): blocks or alerts when sensitive information is copied, sent, or downloaded.
• Behavior analytics (UEBA): detects unusual patterns that may indicate insider risks.
• Session recording: provides clear, auditable evidence for investigations and compliance.
• Custom policies and alerts: tailored rules per client and industry.
• Regulatory compliance: built-in support for GDPR, HIPAA, ISO 27001, PCI DSS, and SOX.
• Integration: easy interoperability with existing MSP security stacks.

Why Teramind is valuable for MSPs
Implementing Teramind transforms an MSP from a service provider into a strategic cybersecurity partner.

1. Total visibility: deliver clear reporting on user activity across client systems.
2. Proactive prevention: block risky actions in real time rather than reacting afterward.
3. Trust and transparency: every action is recorded and auditable.
4. Market differentiation: Teramind strengthens an MSP’s value proposition.
5. Scalability: manage multiple clients and enforce different policies from one platform.

Use Cases Across Industries

• Finance: prevent data exfiltration in banking systems and transactions.
• Healthcare: ensure HIPAA compliance and protect patient records.
• Industry & energy: monitor contractors in OT environments.
• Government: guarantee transparency and compliance in critical systems.
• Education: protect student data and academic systems.

MSPs vs resellers: the Teramind difference
Resellers simply sell licenses. MSPs, by contrast, can turn Teramind into a managed security service by offering:

• Continuous monitoring.
• Regular reports with insider risk indicators.
• Real-time policy enforcement.
• Strategic consulting for long-term security.

Compliance as a competitive edge
Clients across industries must comply with increasingly strict regulations. For MSPs, Teramind provides not only security monitoring but also compliance assurance, backed by detailed logs and session evidence that simplify audits.

Conclusion
Insider threats are among the hardest risks to manage because they come from within. With Teramind, MSPs can deliver proactive insider threat prevention, combining monitoring, behavior analytics, DLP, and compliance in one solution.
