Book Review: Insider Threats

Can the insider threat experience of non-nuclear industries and incidents inform the insider threat planning of nuclear security operations? The contention of editors Bunn and Sagan is yes.Their effort is to do so is this short treatise written with seven other experts. This interesting take on the subject was motivated — until now — by the lack of information and data on the subject within the nuclear industry. The editors have looked to the casino and pharmaceutical industries and well-known incidents such as the anthrax mailing attacks of 2001, in addition to insider attacks at military bases, to get out ahead of a nuclear insider threat incident.
