Sándor Bálint, security lead for applied data science, Balabit comments: “This story is a classic example of the fraud triangle. Eliminating at least one of the three components, or "breaking the fraud triangle" is the best way to fight against fraud. This takes place through strengthening internal controls, in order to reduce or eliminate the opportunities. Advanced monitoring as a form of detective control, however, takes a slightly different approach: if clearly communicated and consistently followed through with corrective actions, it also affects the rationalisation part of the triangle, by reducing the chance of potential fraudsters convincing themselves that they can possibly pull off the fraud without consequences.

The survey of British office workers found that 42% use devices not provided by their employer to work with corporate e-mails and files. Half (52%) also use personal online accounts, such as Enterprise File Sharing Services (EFSS) to store or access work files – with only 34% saying they have never done so.
