Don’t Scratch Your Nose
Whilst I don’t believe I would be involved in any sort of interrogation work at my current place of employment, I have to admit that I found the Dark Reading article on “How to Interview an Insider Threat Suspect” really interesting. Of course, this article could have been about any sort of interview/interrogation techniques, but it certainly made it relevant (and/or entertaining) to see it put in the context of having to quiz your malicious DBAs or other potential insider threats.
What I learnt from this article:
- I am entirely too trusting of people in general as I would never pick up on these things
- I don’t know nearly enough about non-verbal communication (who knew that over 90% of people communicate with their eyes)
- I’m not pushy enough to dig hard for the answer that the interviewee is avoiding (this may also mean that I should not be involved in audit work)
- Don’t scratch your nose, look down when asked a question, or pull your ear lobes
