Question - You have been retained as a consultant to the Bentley Company, and the primary reason they think they need your expertise is to help them identify a problem with retaining their best employees. Bentley maintains a very large computer system that supports over 235-networked PCs. The company maintains fairly extensive databases regarding its customers. These databases include customer profiles, past purchasing patterns, and prices charged. Recently, Bentley has been having some major problems with competitors. One competitor in particular seems to be very clever at taking away the company's customers. Apparently, this competitor is offering Bentley's customers identical products at lower prices.
In your opinion, what is the possible security problem at Bentley?
What can you recommend to the management at Bentley to mitigate this problem?
