Imagine that
IT workers that are disgruntled, paranoid, habitually late, argumentative and perform poorly at work are most likely to sabotage corporate systems. And we needed a study to tell us this?
According to the research, 86 percent of those who committed cybercrimes held technical positions and 90 percent had system administrator or privileged system access. Almost half -- 41 percent -- of those who sabotaged IT systems were employed at the time they did it but most crimes were committed by insiders following termination.
