Julia is an engineer for a cleared defense contractor. She took files home from work and realized she accidentally included a file marked SECRET. Does this incident pose an insider threat as defined by the National Insider Threat Task Force (NITTF)? Why or why not?
- Maybe, the incident meets the definition if the SECRET file was viewed at her home by someone without a need-to-know.
- Yes, the incident meets the definition because Julia has authorized access, and her intention is irrelevant.
- No, the incident does not meet the definition because Julia is not a DOD employee.
- No, the incident does not meet the definition because Julia's actions were not intentional.
