Human error or human mischief???? For as long as there is information held in system that "someone" has access to and someone else might want....there will be room for wrong doing... The point made that little head rolling is seen is a fair point. If you look at the information stored as a companies stock. Giving it to someone else is akin to theft.

Exactly that...the guy is very much onto it..The Good Oil news site is well worth visiting.

I would argue that even if it is a human failure it is a systems failure as well.

Depending what the information is and who you give it to could also be seen a treason. Not treason in this case tho
