"outside the IT security box"

I agree, but is this really, still, considered outside the box? I thought this was common knowledge before I was born? Almost everyone inside an organisation is paid less than the value of the information that they have access to and in most cases there are enough of them with access that you'd never be able to prove it in court unless you caught them red-handed.
