The business processes of organisations depend increasingly on the different information technology tools both hardware and software. But the "dark side of the world", the cyber criminals have discovered weaknesses and vulnerabilities in the application of these technologies, the ability to penetrate the organizations servers using different methods and techniques and extract information for financial gain.

Information security emerged in response to the risks arising from the use of these technologies. But the problem is that, in all cases, countermeasures used by information security, almost without exception point to cyber criminals who are outside the organisation trying to penetrate. Therefore, there is a great new challenge for information security - we face another enemy invisible and more difficult to identify, that of internal fraud. The presentation will focus on the new challenge of how to increase the security of information.
