Dealing With The Malicious Insider, Andy Jones, Carl Colwill
Dealing With The Malicious Insider, Andy Jones, Carl Colwill
Australian Information Security Management Conference
This paper looks at a number of issues relating to the malicious insider and the nature of motivation, loyalty and the type of attacks that occur. The paper also examines the changing environmental, social, cultural and business issues that have resulted in an increased exposure to the insider threat. The paper then discusses a range of measures that can be taken to reduce both the likelihood of an attack and the impact that such an attack may have. These measures should be driven by focused and effective risk management processes.
