Fatigued and fed up, employees who are quietly easing off the gas pedal could pose a serious threat if they go from quietly quitting to actively attacking.

Most IT security administrators keep their focus on external threats, but attention to internal security should be part of any cybersecurity plan to uphold good security posture.

Keeping track of employee server access, file viewing, and any downloads can help mitigate the likelihood secure data is leaked by an upset employee on the way out.

With the rise in remote work during the global COVID pandemic, IT security professionals have had to keep a close eye on employees from afar. Limiting access to only necessary files and systems can help limit company exposure in the event an employee attempts to leak info they have access to.
