Eliminate Bias and Improve Data Protection
It is best practice to reduce bias when monitoring employees by pinpointing activities involving sensitive
data that can jeopardize sensitive information. Using technology that anonymizes employees while
monitoring activities to maintain organizational security is crucial for eliminating bias. This monitoring
technology still allows teams to unveil users displaying suspicious activity by providing ‘scoped
investigations,’ giving audited data access to investigators with limited access to maintain privacy
regulations.
Protecting and identifying employee information helps security teams detect risks without the interference
of bias. This form of anonymity in monitoring provides teams with a holistic view of organizational activities
that help detect threats and reduce monitoring bias, supporting an impartial management program that
employees can trust.
