Industrial espionage
With today’s technological and communication means, industrial espionage is an escalating issue.
Industrial or economic espionage aims to steal any competitive, technological or strategic information that gives an organization an edge over its competitors.
Each year, we work with many companies that succeed in preventing and managing industrial espionage risks. These attacks take many forms and can be technological in nature or involve employee infiltration, hacking, entrapment, threats, violence or corruption.
Corporate intelligence and investigation can prevent, reduce and eliminate risks of this nature and protect the competitive edge of today’s businesses.
