Combat Insider Threats
Write a 3 to 5 paragraph briefing paper that identifies and explains the three most important reasons why Sifers-Grayson should invest in an Identity Governance & Administration solution to help combat insider threat.

Provide in-text citations and references for 3 or more authoritative sources. Put the reference list at the end of your article.
