[Cisspstudy] cisspstudy Digest, Vol 12, Issue 5

[Muhammad Malik]

Hi All,

Meena is right. The greatest risk comes from inside. On page 697 of the
Official (ISC)2 Guide to CISSP CBK, it states:

"The greatest risk of cybercrime comes from inside, namely, criminal
insiders [42-46]"

Regards,

Dr. Muhammad Malik
