What We Do

Human risk is inevitable.

Unmanaged human risk is optional.

Our Expertise

Vaillance Group is a global human risk management and insider threat consultancy trusted by organizations that cannot afford blind spots.

We help organizations understand, detect, and mitigate insider risk by focusing on what others overlook: human behavior, organizational pressure, and access. Our work sits at the intersection of people, culture, and security—long before risk turns into incident.

We don’t approach insider threat as a technical problem.
We treat it as what it is: a human one.

What We Do

Human Risk Assessments™ (HRA)

Our proprietary Human Risk Assessment™ takes a deep, structured look at the human factors that drive insider risk, including:

  • Organizational culture and morale

  • Governance and leadership signals

  • Role-based access and privilege

  • Workforce stressors and pressure points

  • Reporting pathways and trust dynamics

The result is a clear, actionable roadmap for reducing human risk and building or strengthening an insider threat program that actually works in the real world.

 

Insider Threat Program Design & Advisory

We design bespoke insider threat and human risk programs tailored to each organization’s culture, risk tolerance, and operating environment. No templates. No vendor-driven checklists.

Our consultants advise leadership, HR, security, and legal teams on:

  • Insider threat program development and maturity

  • High-risk roles and privileged access

  • Sensitive offboarding and investigations

  • Incident response and executive decision-making

  • Aligning security controls with trust and culture

We routinely support complex, high-stakes matters involving malicious insiders, negligence, fraud, data theft, and reputational risk.

 

Training & Awareness

We deliver high-impact training that resonates across roles—from boards and executives to HR leaders and frontline staff.

Our sessions focus on:

  • How insider threats actually emerge

  • Early behavioral and cultural warning signs

  • What leaders and employees should do differently

  • Reducing fear while increasing accountability

Training is practical, engaging, and grounded in real cases—not theory.
