How the Dark Web Presents New Insider Threats

Michael Theis of Carnegie Mellon’s CERT Insider Threat Center offers an overview of emerging insider threats. The dark web has been reaching out to insiders to buy their login credentials or get them to sell intellectual property, Theis says. Organizations must educate staff about the latest cyberattack trends and limit the amount of data users can access with their credentials, he says.

Theis is chief counterintelligence expert at Carnegie Mellon.”]
