Title: The Three Faces of Insider Threat
Abstract: Motivation, behavior, and/or negligence is what converts insiders to an Insider Threat. The potential risks associated with an Insider Threat are particularly frightening because they already have the necessary credentials and access to do significant damage to your business.
