Serious question: Can we presume he knew he was doing something wrong?
Of course he did. How could he not know taken documents and giving to a competing company wasn’t a violation? Need more locks on this kind of stuff. Should all uploads and content transmissions out of network require an approval by default? Difficult to say it but it needs to be considered
Profiling works. Profiling is abhorrent to most people in 1st world countries, but it works exceedingly well.
If the hire is from an adversarial country, they should not only be locked but on a watch list. Our 3 letter organizations should be proactive toward information security. We're in the Information Age now. It's time our society treated that information like the gold it is.

They also benefit directly as they’re stealing the information.
