What is inside the book?
Industrial or economic espionage is the third oldest profession in the world, the same as prostitution and journalism. Small companies, giant corporations and states compete with each other for market dominance, higher profits and access to valuable resources. Before signing trade agreements or starting wars, opponents, whoever they are, gather all the necessary information to make the right decision. All methods and means are used, including insider information, blackmail, bribery, hacking, and government resources such as intelligence agencies and spies. This book explores the origins of economic espionage and its development to the present day. Since ancient times, this type of activity has been not only a favorite weapon in the competitive struggle of large enterprises, but also a tool for obtaining super profits and controlling the world. The book also highlights some of the preventative measures that can help businesses avoid the losses associated with the theft of trade secrets. Information for the book is based on interviews with business and cybersecurity professionals, as well as open and confidential documents.
