I can't get into the details, but at one of my previous jobs, which was an extremely large network of offices spanning most of the state, we had an IT guy basically hijack all of the computers to mine crypto for him during down time. I'm sure each one alone wasn't mining much of shit, but considering it was thousands of computers and not costing him anything... yaaaaaa... when IT finally figured it out he was gone quickly and they discovered he had set up backdoors to bypass the security and all sorts of other fun stuff. Not sure what happened to him, but I never heard from him again after they got wise.

lol, sometimes I think people are amazingly smart and dumb at the same time. Interesting. I am way to nervous of a person to attempt anything like that.
Insider threat is often the worse kind which is why job rotation and separation of duties is a good thing.
Would deter those that see it as too much overhead to set everything up to tear everything down and scrub any trace so oncoming doesn't detect it.
