Cyber Insurance Between the Lines
Shackleford writes "Security Focus has an article that discusses insurance policies regarding 'computer attacks and cyber sabotage.' It discusses a case in which an administrator who set up back doors in the system with which he was trusted deleted files to which he could access after he was fired. His company had insurance against dishonest acts by employees, but not against 'acts of destruction.' Eventaully, the company won, but the case went to litigation. So the lesson to be learned here is that your company may have 'cyber insurance' without knowing it, but you need to be sure about it."

Where would you put a comma in that sentence? Commas do not exist simply for the purpose of being scattered randomly.
The only correction necessary would be to remove the extraneous "to":
It discusses a case in which an administrator who set up back doors in the system with which he was trusted deleted files to which he could access after he was fired.
Tarsnap: Online backups for the truly paranoid
Actually commas could be inserted properly.
It discusses a case in which an administrator, who set up back doors in the system with which he was trusted, deleted files to which he could access after he was fired.
Gibble: Descriptive of an emotional state in which one's mind is scrabbling for some purchase on reality
Or, after changing his somewhat peculiar syntax: It discusses a case in which an administrator, who had set up back doors in the system with which he was trusted, deleted files after he was fired.
