Insider Threats
Malicious insiders can be employees, former employees, contractors or business associates who have legitimate access to your systems and data, but use that access to destroy data, steal data or sabotage your systems. It does not include well-meaning staff who accidentally put your cyber security at risk or spill data.
There are many reasons an insider can be or become malicious including revenge, coercion, ideology, ego or seeking financial gain through intellectual property theft or espionage. They could:
- impact external sites, creating public damage to your brand
- prevent your systems from functioning properly
- steal or sell business trade secrets or intellectual property (IP)
- install malware for their own purposes
Cyber adversaries can use employees whose trust they have gained to access your business systems and accounts. Employees could provide information to a malicious insider unknowingly, or mention sensitive details in trust.
GuardWare INSIGHT Cyber Awareness’s focus is about detecting and educating users as and when they perform risky action. Its aim is to not educate users on a perceived threat but actively detect and educate as when they perform human error or risky activities. Below are some examples of these actions:
- User mistakes – like using unauthorised or risky apps and means to transfer data
- Emailing sensitive data to wrong or risky locations
- Using unencrypted USBs to carry sensitive data
- Sharing sensitive data using anonymous links without any password or security
- Submitting company data to risky / non-company websites

Our previous I.T. Service Provider was distant, hard to contact and not customer focused. With Australia Wide I.T. we now have great service with a human touch. Our calls are answered promptly and the team is always ready to help in any way.

Leigh

Jacinta
Very much appreciate your very quick response today. It was pay day today and I was a bit worried (that we wouldn’t be able to process the pays) but because of you all is well, so a big thanks.
Dale
My business has grown from 3 stores to 5 stores over the last 3 years; one of the unfortunate consequences of this has been the fact that our old server and network could not cope with the growth. After much deliberation we chose Australia Wide I.T. to not only arrange the supply and installation of our new network, but to also provide long term support. We have been very pleased with our decision and would happily recommend them.

Your work last week was amazing. You couldn’t have been more supportive or expert in your conduct. I am very grateful and am amazed at your generous invoicing of last week’s work. I can only repay you by recommending you to as many people as possible.
Thank you. It is refreshing to know that when a problem occurs, you are always there – with great service.

They’ve gotten to know our business so well and they’re truly interested in helping us. It’s like having our own I.T. Department in-house. Australia Wide I.T. takes a personal interest in our team, our business and where we’re going. They’re like family.
Other I.T. companies just didn’t seem to have the same depth of knowledge as these guys. Rather than blame the user (us) they go the extra mile, locate the problem and fix it – Every time!
Coral
All good as usual, keep up the professional service.
Diana
A very big thank you from me to all of the guys there….You make things so easy for us and are always available to help.
A massive shout out to the Nash though for fixing our printer – you nailed it Nash and not only changed MY life, but also helped to save some trees in the Amazon Forest!
Thanks to you all.
