Insider threats in toxicology can manifest in various ways, including:
- Data Breaches: Insiders may leak or steal sensitive research data, including proprietary formulas and confidential patient information. - Sabotage: Malicious insiders might deliberately contaminate samples or damage laboratory equipment. - Theft: Insiders could steal toxic substances for personal use or illegal sale. - Negligence: Poor adherence to safety protocols can lead to accidental exposure or contamination, posing significant health risks.
