About This Item
Trade Paperback, Near Very Good. "Review Copy" Inscribed inside FW, Light ripple in first few pages, otherwise appears to be as unread/lightly read contents in wraps displaying minimal surface/edge wear, as shown.
This digest of commercial espionage techniques and countermeasures is for every business, research or financial institution or government agency.
Patent attorney and lecturer Parad explains in detail such intelligence collection techniques as reverse engineering, fake job interviewing, hiring away key employees, interception of data transmission, aerial photography, blackmail, trash evaluation, obtaining information from cleaning personnel and others, perusal of financial reports and other documents of record, and more. He also discusses how to safeguard proprietary information (communication codes and bogus reports are among the techniques); legally protect intellectual property; take security measures for classified data couriers; enforce proprietary rights in the US; and implement information theft countermeasures. The publisher's address is 4711 Golf Road, Suite 706, Skokie, IL 60076. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or. Buiness Protection Safety
Attorney Parad reports that commercial espionage costs the United States $100 billion each year, and his slim volume seeks to inform the unwary in an attempt to stem that tide. In the first third of the volume, he lists 79 ways a company can lose its competitive edge by such espionage techniques as trash evaluation; the last two-thirds outline how to stanch the flow. Much of this would be apparent to anyone with common sense, but some points demonstrate expertise, and the author's checklist of basic negotiation rules and comments on international travel security are well made. Parad's law firm specializes in economic espionage countermeasures, and the book feels like the summary of a workshop on the topic, with a strong international flavor. The digest format and frequent examples will appeal to business readers more than the dull textual format of Ira Winkler's less expensive Corporate Espionage (Prima: 1997), which covers much of the same ground. Intellectual property rights and their protection are somewhat of a hot topic these days, and Parad's book is an acceptable purchase for public and academic libraries. ?Patrick J.
