FSOs have a huge responsibility to protect contractor information. One important job is to start with an insider threat program.

Most people make the mistake of relying on tracking employees and looking for suspicious behavior. That's not a good way to start.

I've got a better solution. It's here in the video as well as my new book:

Establish an Insider threat program under NISPOM. https://www.redbikepublishing.com/books/
https://www.redbikepublishing.com/insiderthreatprogram/

Online security clearance webinars and coaching. Providing security training and resources.


It also answers the question that so many people have asked,

  • If we have the NISPOM, why do we need an insider threat program?
  • If the NISPOM is so thorough, what would an additional insider threat program look like?

Most organizations attack the problem with either an employee tracking or online activity reporting goal.

After asking the above questions, we recommend a different solution. Of course the employee reporting and activity tracking solutions are important and part of the solution, but they should not be the end goal.

This book recommends a different application that can easily be implemented to both resolve insider threat issues and demonstrate compliance.

Establishing an Insider Threat Program Under NISPOM is written primarily for cleared defense contractors to meet Insider Threat Program requirements under the cognizance of the U.S. Government (Defense Counterintelligence and Security Agency (DCSA)).

Our recommended approach and practices help reduce vulnerabilities without negatively impacting the work force. You will learn to be innovative in your approach as well

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist

It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
