Here at Nisos we truly feel that it is necessary to learn from the best at every opportunity, and we try to ensure that all of the material we present makes its consumers better at their jobs the day they consume it. It’s not just podcast platitudes, listen to the experts; their suggestions and processes work!  With that in mind, we’d like to congratulate Nisos friend and former Cyber5 Podcast guest Charles Finfrock, the insider threat program manager at Tesla. [On the podcast](https://blog.nisos.com/podcast) in June, Finfrock highlighted simple and inexpensive steps program managers can take to achieve success, including routine infosec awareness training for all employees. Tesla [publicly confirmed last week](https://www.wired.com/story/tesla-ransomware-insider-hack-attempt/) that it thwarted an attempted Russian-origin recruitment of a Tesla employee designed to install ransomware on the Tesla network. Tesla was able to take action which resulted not only in its network being protected, but the would-be attacker being arrested by the FBI.  Well done Tesla team! Listen here to Finfrock’s comments on how to build an employee-centric monitoring program:  --- --- --- - Solutions - [Human Risk](https://nisos.com/solutions/human-risk/) - [Cybersecurity](https://nisos.com/solutions/cybersecurity/) - [Trust and Safety / Platform](https://nisos.com/solutions/trust-safety/) - [Corporate / Physical Security](https://nisos.com/solutions/corporate-security/) - [Human Risk](https://nisos.com/services/human-risk/) - [Employment Shield](https://nisos.com/services/employment-shield/) - [Executive Shield](https://nisos.com/services/executive-shield/) - [Third-Party Intelligence Solutions](https://nisos.com/services/third-party-intelligence-solutions/) - [Insider Threat Intelligence Solutions](https://nisos.com/services/insider-threat-intelligence-solutions/) - [Risk Assessments](https://www.nisos.com/services/risk-assessments/) - [Threat Landscape Assessment](https://nisos.com/services/threat-landscape-assessment/) - [Threat Monitoring](https://www.nisos.com/services/threat-monitoring/) - [OSINT Monitoring & Analysis](https://www.nisos.com/services/osint-monitoring-and-analysis/) - [Executive Shield](https://www.nisos.com/services/executive-shield/) - [Investigations](https://www.nisos.com/services/investigations/) - [Adversary Insights® Investigation](https://www.nisos.com/services/adversary-insights/) - [Event-Driven Intel Investigation](https://www.nisos.com/services/event-driven-investigation/) - Why Nisos - [About Us](https://nisos.com/company/about-us/) - [Client Success](https://nisos.com/company/client-success/) - [Our Approach](https://nisos.com/company/our-approach/) - [The Dogpile](https://www.nisos.com/the-dogpile/) - [Team Pandion™](https://www.nisos.com/company/team-pandion/) - [Careers](https://www.nisos.com/company/about-the-company/careers/) - Resources - [Blog](https://www.nisos.com/nisos-blog/) - [Resource Library](https://nisos.com/resources/library/) - [Podcast](https://www.nisos.com/podcasts/) - [News](https://www.nisos.com/news/) - [Events](https://nisos.com/events/) - [Law Firms](https://nisos.com/law-firms/) - [Federal](https://nisos.com/federal/) - [Media Inquiries](https://nisos.com/company/about-us/media-support/) **Contact** [info@nisos.com](mailto:info@nisos.com) tel: [703-382-8400](tel:7033828400) 2101 Wilson Blvd. Suite 304 Arlington, VA 22201 ![Nisos](https://blog.nisos.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Nisos_July2023/images/NISOS_logo_high_res_vert_white@2x.png?width=320&name=NISOS_logo_high_res_vert_white@2x.png "Nisos") [Terms and Conditions](https://www.nisos.com/terms-conditions/) [Cookie Policy](https://www.nisos.com/cookie-policy/) [Privacy Policy](https://www.nisos.com/privacy-policy/) ©2025 Nisos All Rights Reserved ![](https://px.ads.linkedin.com/collect/?pid=1593266&fmt=gif)
