A small business, or independent consultant, can cause you big trouble. They are more likely to share computers with unauthorized parties and more likely telecommute. There is little or no oversight and quality control, and IT policies are usually non-existent.

This leads to third parties downloading P2P applications to download music, while accidentally publishing the security designs for a nuclear facility.

RedTeam made contact with the production company, and provided their investigators with the source of the breach. The P2P application was removed shortly thereafter.
