Insider Threat Defense Group
The incident listed on pages 4 to 25 of this report provide a comprehensive view of the many different types of malicious actions caused by employees’, that have been very damaging and have had severe impacts to all types of companies and organizations. (MILLIONS TO BILLIONS) In some cases, these reports show that companies have had large layoffs or gone out of business because of the malicious actions of employees.
The malicious actions are caused by just 1 employee, by multiple employees in collusion, or by employees working with external cyber criminals / co-conspirators.
In many cases employees are using the money they steal from their employers, to live lavish lifestyles.
Insider Threat Awareness Training is critical for establishing a workplace culture of “See Something, Say Something” to detect, prevent and mitigate Insider Risks and Threats.
Creating an Insider Risk Management Program is critical for protecting an organization’s assets. (Facilities, Financial Assets, Employees, Data, Networks)
