Melissa is clearly a 'Disgruntled employee with a vendetta' kind of insider. I hope the company has good cybersecurity measures in place to stop her!

Ha! Melissa is the perfect example of a 'Revenge-seeking ex-employee' category. That should be a new option on the exam.

I'm not sure. Melissa could also be considered a 'Compromised insider' since she's already aware of the network topology, which suggests she might have had legitimate access at some point.

That's a good point. Melissa could also be considered a compromised insider since she may have had legitimate access to the network before being fired.
