There has been  however  an increase in awareness about the issues. There are more graduate-level programs in business and in security that are offering courses and training on intelligence gathering in the commercial sector. Training in the protection of confidential documents and materials that forms a part of security certification programs has been updated. With the large amount of outsourcing in the technological sector overseas  information transfer and leakage continues to be a serious problem  and as long as corporations see outsourcing as a way to save money in the short term  dangers will persist. The security community will need to continue to pursue this issue politically and socially. Accordingly  the text focuses on these issues and gives the reader a real sense of how industrial spies are persistent and clever in circumventing defenses. It examines both the defensive and offensive tactics necessary to fight industrial espionage. Living with paradox should be the theme for the security professional  and the book draws wisdom from political philosophers like Machiavelli to aid in that perspective. A clear plan of action in dealing with industrial espionage in a fluid  mobile  information-rich business environment is offered. Two additional chapters cover the tradecraft of the industrial spy and the uses of data mining in gathering business intelligence. An outline is offered for planning an intelligence campaign against a target  and a sample strategic intelligence report about a business is included. In addition  there is also a glossary of terms related to industrial espionage. These additional tools should increase a security professionals awareness of the corporate spys mindset  which is a major portion of the battle. This book will serve as a valuable resource to security professionals in law enforcement and the business sector.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45652307771445,"sku":"ByrdShop_0398079633","price":71.56,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780398079635.jpg?v=1781850869","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/the-quiet-threat-fighting-industrial-espionage-in-america-9780398079635","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
