Abstract "[This book] examines the three most prevalent cybercrimes afflicting today's corporate security professionals: piracy, espionage, and computer hacking. By demonstrating how each of these threats evolved separately and then converged to form an ultra-dangerous composite threat, the book discusses the impact the threats pose and how the very technologies that created the problem can help solve it. [The book] then offers viable strategies for how different types of businesses--from large multinationals to small start-ups--can respond to these threats to both minimize their losses and gain a competitive advantage. The book concludes by identifying future technological threats and how the models presented in the book can be applied to handling them. [This book:] demonstrates how to ... handle corporate cyber security issues using case studies from a wide range of companies around the globe; highlights the regulatory, economic, cultural, and demographic trends businesses encounter when facing security issues; and profiles corporate security issues in major industrialized, developing, and emerging countries throughout North America, Europe, Asia, Latin America, Africa, and the Middle East."-- Back cover.
