This is an inside the firewall issue, but one that is critical. Employees
access the Global Web for not so innocent reasons, true.
"Now for the rest of the story." (Paul Harvey).
Employees may, also, fall into one, or more, of five (5) traps that affect
their employer in a negative way. It does no good to do a partial fix for
Human Factor threats.
Content monitoring is a partial fix to internal threats.
Human Factor dangers can be summarized in the WAECUP (Wake-Up) Protocol,
developed by the undersigned, a number of years ago. The letters stand for
Waste, Accident, Error, Crime, and Unethical Practice.
Unless employees receive adequate training, and admonition, on all five WAECUP
areas, it will be one problem after another. Does your employer provide such
training ?
Think of it � as being shot in the back � while you try to screen out external
threats via Firewall, Intrusion Detection, and DMZ.
