Industrial Espionage
Industrial espionage is the act of gathering proprietary data from private companies or the
government34 for the purpose of aiding another company(ies). Industrial espionage can be
perpetrated either by companies seeking to improve their competitive advantage or by
governments seeking to aid their domestic industries. Foreign industrial espionage carried out by
a government is often referred to as economic espionage. Since information is processed and
stored on computer systems, computer security can help protect against such threats; it can do
little, however, to reduce the threat of authorized employees selling that information.
