Throughout the course of this podcast series, we've had an abundance of great conversations with our colleagues at Microsoft about how they're working to better protect companies and individuals from cyber-attacks, but today we take a look at a different source of malfeasance: the insider threat. Now that most people are working remotely and have access to their company's data in the privacy of their own home, it's easier than ever to access, download, and share private information.
