While whoever wrote this article for the Boston Globe clearly didn’t see the recent study that says outside hackers are now a much bigger threat to companies than disgruntled employees, that doesn’t mean disgruntled employees aren’t a threat.

I never really understand what these people are thinking, since there’s a pretty high likelihood they’ll get caught.
