The Four Faces of Business Espionage

Pretext Attacks
Pretext attacks are limited only by the imagination of the attackers. Attackers may be young or not-so-young, male or female, and in any profession.
Technical Surveillance
Technical spying is easy because many modern security cameras and listening devices have hidden spy tech potential.
Computer Abuse
Hackers and other computer abusers get most of the attention, but many losses are due to poor security training and new threats that develop.
Undercover Attacks
Terrorists, foreign spies, and former lovers use data from undercover operatives. Spies from many countries are active in the field.
