You can structure it so that it becomes accidental.

  1. Ensure security barriers are weak or honor based.
  2. Put individual researchers under a lot of pressure.
  3. If you get caught, blame the weak barriers, or the individual researcher.

Basically setup the incentive structure to incentivize researchers sticking their mittens in the private cookie jar while putting the cookie jar in a dark unmonitored/unsecured room with a sign on the door saying please don't enter.
