Abstract:

This study investigates the factors that influence the insider threat behaviour. The research aims to develop a holistic view of insider threat behaviour and ways to manage it. This research adopts an Explanatory Mixed Methods approach for the research process. Firstly, the researcher collects the quantitative data and then the qualitative data. In the first phase, the holistic insider threat model is developed; in the second phase, best practices are developed to manage the threat.

Abstract:

<p> Malicious Insider threats consist of employees, contractors, or business partners who either have current authorized access, or have had authorized access to an organization's critical information and have intentionally misused that access in a manner that compromised the organization. Although incidents initiated by malicious insiders are fewer in number than those initiated by external threats, insider incidents are more costly on average because the threat is already trusted by the organization and often has privileged access to the organization's most sensitive information.

Abstract:

The issue of insider threat is one that organizations have dealt with for many years. Insider threat research began in the early 80's, but has yet to provide satisfactory results despite the fact that insiders pose a greater threat to organizations than external attackers. One of the key issues relating to this problem is that the amount of collectable data is enormous and it is currently impossible to analyze all of it, for each insider, in a timely manner. The purpose of this research is to analyze a portion of this collectable data, process usage, and determine if this data is useful in ide

Abstract:

Numerous studies indicate that amongst the various types of security threats, the problem of insider misuse of IT systems can have serious consequences for the health of computing infrastructures. Although incidents of external origin are also dangerous, the insider IT misuse problem is difficult to address for a number of reasons. A fundamental reason that makes the problem mitigation difficult relates to the level of trust legitimate users possess inside the organization. The trust factor makes it difficult to detect threats originating from the actions and credentials of individual users. A

The advantages of always available services, such as remote device backup or data storage, have helped the widespread adoption of cloud computing.

Abstract:

Currently governments and research communities are concentrating on insider threat matters more than ever, the main reason for this is that the effect of a malicious insider threat is greater than before. Moreover, leaks and the selling of the mass data have become easier, with the use of the dark web. Malicious insiders can leak confidential data while remaining anonymous. Our approach describes the information gained by looking into insider security threats from the multiple perspective concepts that is based on an integrated three-dimensional approach.

Abstract:

Widespread losses during the recent financial crisis have raised concerns that equitybased CEO compensation (stocks and stock options) causes risky bank policies. This has led to the need to understand whether CEO pay can be re-structured such that it dampens risk-taking incentives. Against this background, this thesis analyses if debtbased compensation (also known as inside debt and consisting of pension benefits and deferred compensation) motivates CEOs to pursue risk-reducing bank policies. Over three decades of research into executive compensation has not explored the impact of inside debt

Abstract:

L'Articolo 2 del Trattato sull'Unione Europea sancisce che l'UE è fondata sul rispetto della democrazia e dello stato di diritto. Ogni Stato membro dell'UE è quindi chiamato a rispettare questi princìpi, che fanno parte dei criteri che ogni Paese candidato deve soddisfare per entrare nell'Unione. Tuttavia, nel corso dell'ultimo decennio, Paesi come Polonia e Ungheria hanno approvato leggi in forte contrasto con le norme dell'UE. Nel tentativo di contrastare queste violazioni, nel 2020 la Commissione ha innescato il meccanismo di condizionalità, vincolando l'erogazione dei fondi europei per la

Abstract:

"A view from the inside" is based upon my three years as headteacher of Redland Primary School. A participant-observational, ethnographic methodology is employed to communicate the richness, complexity and reality of the headteacher's existence and my overarching aim is to "tell it like it really is". Chapter One introduces the principal actors involved in the ensuing social drama and describes the nature of the stage and the props. In short, the human and non-human components of the situation. Chapter Two maps the positive interaction of intra-institutional participants, providing an account

Abstract:

Young people who have experienced the secure estate as a result of being involved in offending behaviour are particularly vulnerable to poor life outcomes (unemployment, poor education, mental health difficulties, social exclusion etc.). This research project focusses on three young people's perspectives of their own transition from the secure estate into education, training or employment in order to contribute to the growing knowledge base around this population of young people. This contribution is in the form of an interpretation by the author of these idiographic accounts of transition. Th
