Explanation:
It is commonly stated that internal threats provide 70 to 80 percent
of the overall threat to a company. This is because employees already have
privileged access to a wide range of company assets. The outsider who wants to cause
damage must obtain this level of access before she can carry out the type of damage
that internal personnel can carry out. A lot of the damages that are caused by
internal employees are brought about by mistakes and system misconfigurations.
