Most employers are astounded at how easily and quickly their proprietary information can get out of their control. In a large number of cases, theft of trade secrets often involves employees leaving a company to start their own business or work for a direct competitor.
Nearly all books that address the topic of trade secrets have the "spy vs. spy" perspective. The author approaches the topic from a practical business perspective and not simply creating "paranoia" for paranoia's sake. The material for this book comes from the author's extensive work experience as a computer forensics consultant and manager on numerous theft of trade secrets cases.
- Numerous tables organize information and provide executive summaries for easy reference
- Provides no-nonsense solutions to the most common problems facing security managers, computer security professionals, corporate legal counsel, and human resource managers
- Written in a readable tone that cuts through technical jargon
