If you still think nameless, faceless bad hackers are the biggest threat to your IT systems and the precious information they contain, think again: Three quarters of all data breaches are at the hands of insiders at the organisation - most inadvertent, but some malicious - according to a recent report from the US-based Poneman Institute.
The study, which was commissioned by Compuware, found that 75 percent of organizations in the US, UK, France, and Germany have suffered data breaches caused by accidental internal lapses, while 26 percent say they have experienced breaches from malicious insiders.
Over the period 12-13 November author, broadcaster and computer forensics investigator Ed Wilding will be leading the Investigating Computer Misuse Course at ARC Training. Tackling this delicate issue of dataloss, the programme is intended for those whose role may in some way involve the detection and investigation of internal crimes committed against or using company IT systems.
Assuming just a rudimentary “user-level” prior knowledge of IT systems, the course is presented in non-technical language and will be of great benefit to general security managers, consultants, investigators, HR managers, line managers and IT staff who seek to protect their organisation against this fast growing threat.
