Interception of Computer Data
Industrial Espionage and Technical Surveillance Counter Measurers, 2016Co-Authors: Iosif Androulidakis, Fragkiskos – Emmanouil KioupakisAbstract:The “source” of data in the modern era is undisputedly computers. Whether standalone or networked, computers store and process information that can always be useful in cases of Industrial Espionage. The full description of the techniques and threats that may compromise the confidentiality of computer data, as well as the applicable countermeasures, is so extensive that cannot be included in a few pages of a single chapter, since it is the subject of the information security science. Moreover, the primary purpose of this book is to fill the gap in the available literature regarding Industrial Espionage and protection against telecommunication interceptions. In any case, for reasons of completeness, we will examine to a reasonable extent the software and hardware that is used for intercepting computer data.

Industrial Espionage reality of the information age
Research-technology Management, 1992Co-Authors: Stephen A CarltonAbstract:Research managers have enough work without overseeing the lab's information security program too. Unfortunately, they have no choice without risking the disclosure of innovative technical information. Never before in peacetime has there been such an intense effort to obtain a competitor's technical information. For instance, French intelligence agents conducted Espionage operations against the overseas offices of IBM and Texas Instruments (1). Two Koreans were arrested by the FBI in Houston after allegedly paying $40,000 for blueprints of Dow Chemical's polymer plant in La Porte, Texas (2). A former Merck and Schering-Plough employee was recently sentenced to nine years in prison for attempting to sell the formulas for Ivermectin and Interferon (3). Theft and attempted theft of proprietary information is a reality of our information age. Unless a company adopts a formidable defensive posture, its ability to compete in the global marketplace will be significantly eroded. STEALING TRADE SECRETS The need to protect one's technical advantage is not new. The Celts stole the secrets for making superior chariot wheels from the Romans, and the Persians stole the secrets for silk production from the Chinese, despite their making such disclosure a capital offense (4). Incidents of trade secret theft increased after World War II. 3M's secrets for making cellophane tape were misappropriated by Technical Tape Company (a situation corrected by litigation) (5). A chemistry professor, Robert Aries, and a former student of his working for Merck, stole Merck's process for making Amprolium. Aries successfully sought sanctuary in France--the Merck employee forfeited a promising career (6). A research chemist at American Cyanamid's Lederle laboratories stole the organisms and process data to make Aureomycin, Tetracycline and Declomycin, and attempted to sell them to an Italian pharmaceutical firm (7). As early as 1962, the Japanese were reported to have opened an Institute for Industrial Protection with the avowed purpose of training spies and counterspies for Japanese corporations (8). The 1980s saw a substantial growth in trade secret theft. The proliferation of personal computers and computer workstations provided more employees with information of a highly sensitive nature. In many cases, access controls to such information were inadequate. The Freedom of Information Act became routinely used to obtain information that competitors were submitting to the government. Some companies, like Monsanto, learned the hard way the importance of placing proprietary markings on their information before submitting it to government agencies (9). Employees were becoming more aware of the value of the information with which they were working. The incident receiving the most attention by media during the 1980s was the FBI sting operation in 1982 in which representatives of Hitachi and Mitsubishi Electric were arrested and charged with soliciting and purchasing IBM's trade secrets. Studies showed that increasingly business executives were taking action to acquire a competitor's information that were previously considered unethical and rarely done (10). The primary legal text on trade secrets expanded from a single volume in 1980 to three volumes in 1989 (11)! Without a doubt, the two most serious threats to competitive information to emerge during this period were: the "no holds barred" approach to acquiring sensitive information adopted by business writers and journalists, and the growth in competitive intelligence gathering. Interest in acquiring internal information on the performance of companies grew as investment in new companies grew. People wanted to know about company plans, research activities, product development and key personnel changes. Newspapers expanded their coverage of business affairs. Many new publications came into being or expanded, creating a demand for "hot" information. Business journalists are often the most aggressive and resourceful people seeking to obtain competitive information; they are also the most dangerous. …

economic and Industrial Espionage at the start of the 21st century status quaestionis
Journal of Intelligence Studies in Business, 2016Co-Authors: Klaus Solberg SoilenAbstract:This article is a literature review where the aim is to define a status quaestionis for the field of economic and Industrial Espionage. History shows how those who engage in these activities often are the scientifically and Industrially weaker party, the party that is learning or trying to catch up. On a global scale economic and Industrial Espionage can be seen as a form of involuntarily sharing that has a series of positive results for economic development. On the scale of the individual businesses attacked, and for tax authorities in those countries, it is a troublesome phenomenon that must be regulated and punished. Governments must prepare society for systematic and frequent cyberattacks. Private companies are wise to move to stricter security controls, which must include encryption. A number of specific research projects are suggested throughout the article. In the literature we have identified the following agent motives: the employee who needs money, has split loyalties, leaves angry, the occasional thieve and the professional spy.

What role does technology play for intelligence studies at the start of the 21st century
Journal of Intelligence Studies in Business, 2016Co-Authors: Klaus Solberg SoilenAbstract:All articles published in this issue show the role technology plays for intelligence studies in business. We see how patents can be used for competitive and business intelligence, how datamining and software can be used for geoeconomics, how it may measure the success of open source innovation in different cultures, how business intelligence software can be evaluated using fuzzy PROMETHEE and how software and the internet are used for economic and Industrial Espionage. Singh writes on geoeconomics on a micro scale, the question about where a business should be located geographically to be economically viable. The author presents a new geospatial methodological approach using census data. ArcGIS software is used as a geospatial analytics tool for hotspot analysis and for producing maps. Deshpande, Ahmed, and Khode’s article entitled “Business intelligence evaluation model in enterprise systems using fuzzy PROMETHEE” presents a new model to evaluate business intelligence for enterprise systems. The article by Capatina, Bleoju, Yamazaki and Nistor show how strategic intelligence solutions, once performed in a collaborative culture environment, will lead to the improvement of the partners’ managerial competences and will act as enablers for competitive positioning, proving the added-value of the acquired know-how through open innovation practices. The article by Maadi, Javidnia and Khatami shows how patents can be used as a source of information for competitive/business intelligence to highlight the technological trends in the field of energy efficient cooling of data centers. As such it is a good applied example for how patent analysis can be done in a specific industry. The last article entitled “Economic and Industrial Espionage at the start of the 21st century – Status quaestionis” is by Solberg Soilen. It is an attempt to define where the field of economic and Industrial Espionage is today, more than ten years after the author wrote a dissertation on the subject. As always, we would above all like to thank the authors for their contributions to this issue of JISIB. Thanks to Dr. Allison Perrigo for reviewing English grammar and helping with layout
