Gartner defines the insider risk management (IRM) market as solutions that use advanced analytics, monitoring, and behavior-based risk models to detect, analyze and mitigate risks posed by trusted insiders within an organization. These solutions monitor the activities of employees, service partners and key suppliers to ensure their behavior aligns with corporate policies and risk tolerance levels. IRM platforms can be delivered as cloud-based services or on-premises solutions, or in hybrid forms. When effectively implemented alongside proper governance, they provide comprehensive visibility, real-time detection, and proactive intervention to safeguard against data theft, fraud and other malicious or unintentional insider threat activities.

We actually went a different route at our organization. While we evaluated the Splunk UBA offering a couple of times we ultimately built what we call "UBA Lite". Our primary challenge was that to really leverage the power of Splunk UBA we needed data sources that we didn't have or would be challenging to accurately maintain. 

A primary data source for Splunk UBA is a proxy and while we may have been able to feed the product something helpful we don't have proxies deployed in a fashion that would have worked the best. With more people now remote and not passing through a traditional proxy, this data source becomes less valuable.

We did decide to review Splunk ESCUs to and selected a number of UBA use-cases that we built out for ourselves based on data that we had readily available.  This allowed us to be more focused on our specific requirements without having to add less valuable data sources and also provided us some cost savings.
