  8. True Story (from The Disaster Recovery Guide) 1) THE INSIDER JOB This story demonstrates how seemingly little things can have serious consequences: • Over a period of nine months, the number of computer malfunctions within a large company had risen from an average of two per year to critical levels. The impact was such that the business fell behind with its invoicing systems and had to buy processing and backup from third parties. As it could not deliver some of its services reliably, it started to lose the confidence of its customers. The situation began to spiral. • Eventually, the company suspected foul play may be involved and called the police. Secret surveillance equipment was installed to monitor staff. One was filmed lightly scratching circuit boards in disk units and also attaching paper clips to them. Both these actions led to a short circuit. • When confronted, he confessed everything. His motive was to earn overtime, which was required to process the overlap work which was delayed by the malfunction. He netted 689 UKP over the 9 months. The company lost at least 500,000 UKP.
