10th February 2011 - The recently published 2011 CyberSecurity Watch Survey claims to show that 21 per cent of attacks on organisations are caused by insiders.

 And, says Amichai Shulman, chief technology officer with data security specialist Imperva, the report also points out that the percentage of those viewing the insider attacks as more costly is up this year (33 per cent) on the 25 per cent reported last year.

"The report is also very interesting as it defines an insider as being an employee or contractor with authorised access, as well as noting that these types of attacks are becoming more sophisticated, where the user employs different Rootkits and hacking tools" he added. This is a significant shift, as so far insider attacks used to rely on very simple techniques and tools (available with any work station).
