Topic Abstract:
Cybercriminals employ nuanced & sophisticated methods to commit fraud. From 2012 to 2016, 73 federal inspectors general (IGs) were on the frontline of fighting Fraud, Waste, & Abuse (FWA). They identified $173 billion in potential savings and reported $88 billion in investigative recoveries and 36,000 successful prosecutions and civil actions. By embracing the Zero Trust security concepts, organizations can reduce risk related to implicit trust and require continuous verification of the operational picture. This can significantly decrease instances of FWA from occurring.
Key takeaways:
- Understand fraud, waste, and abuse through examples
- Understand the Zero Trust model
- Understand tailoring opportunities related to FWA and Zero Trust.
