San Jose, Calif,, Feb. 20, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Dtex Systems, the leader in insider threat intelligence and detection, today announced that significant enhancements are being added to the Dtex Advanced User Behavior Intelligence Platform. These will allow customers to extend visibility over system administrators and other privileged users’ actions, providing the most accurate understanding available of how this groups’ activities and behaviors impact risk. The company also announced that platform scalability improvements are allowing enterprise and government customers to rapidly extend insider threat detection across hundreds of thousands of endpoints that are distributed across global environments.
