As network defense perimeters get stronger and stronger; IT, security, law enforcement, and intelligence professionals are realizing that the greatest threats to their networks are increasingly coming from within their own organizations. These insiders, comprised of current and former employees or contractors, can use their inside knowledge of a target network to carry out acts of sabotage, espionage, and theft of data. This book will teach IT professional and law enforcement officials about the dangers posed by insiders to their IT infrastructure and how to mitigate these risks by designing and implementing secure IT systems as well as security and human resource policies.

The book begins by identifying the types of insiders who are most likely to pose a threat. Next, you will learn about the variety of tools and attacks used by insiders to commit their crimes including: encryption, steganography, and social engineering. The book will then specifically address the dangers faced by corporations and government agencies. Finally, you will learn how to design effective security systems to prevent insider attacks and how to investigate insider security breeches that do occur. Throughout the book, the authors will use their backgrounds in the CIA to analyze several, high-profile cases involving insider threats.

This book was written to indentify current frustrations of the Silent Majority in this country, specifically for those people that do not have time to participate in protests and picketing. The politicians on both sides of the political aisle and the media should take note. One can only sweep things under the rug for so long before someone notices a hump. The American people are tired of being ignored by their elected officials. It is just a matter of the silent majority coming together and flexing their political muscle. Many of the issues this book highlights, have been on the back burner of the proverbial political stove. If they continue to be ignored they will invariably boil over. When this happens the American people will be left with the chore and the expense of cleaning up the mess..
