Among Enemies: Counter-Espionage for the Business Traveler

Angebote / Angebote:

Each business day, some 35, 000 executives, scientists, consultants, and lawyers pass through the nation's airports to destinations across the globe. They carry, along with proprietary documents and computer files, the latest in personal electronic gear. However, carefully watching most of those travellers -- beginning the moment they arrive at the airport and often sooner--are uncounted numbers of espionage operatives. These individuals work for foreign intelligence services and economic concerns and seek to separate international business travellers from their trade secrets. To succeed, they use many time-tested techniques to lure unsuspecting travellers into vulnerable or compromising positions. They also employ the latest electronic means to steal business information often at a distance from their prey. This is the 21st century, after all, and economic and industrial espionage have become multibillion-dollar enterprises, utilising a wide array of the most sophisticated means to obtain proprietary information. Luke Bencie is a veteran of this struggle. He knows intimately the threats business travellers face and how to combat those threats. In this book Bencie provides everything you need to know to protect yourself and your company from attempted espionage.
