Company escapes close call with logic bomb

As many security experts have warned, the greatest danger to data and networks is the human element, especially with regards to those in the know about systems and infrastructure. A systems administrator is being charged with trying to set off a logic bomb within his company's network but was thwarted by a colleague who discovered the nasty code before any damage could be done. The allegations come close on the heels of another case where another IT professional was given an eight-year sentence for detonating a logic bomb at UBS PaineWebber.
