Cyberattacks are a major threat to all businesses, with both external and insider perpetrators posing significant risks. Insider threats can come from employees or contractors who have access to sensitive data. Recent studies suggest that these individuals are motivated by a combination of factors, including personal spite, financial gain, and the ability to punish employers. Certain personality traits like narcissism, psychopathy, and Machiavellian tendencies appear common in inside attackers. Efforts to mitigate these threats include proactive interventions, regular audits, and fostering a culture of security within the organization.
