Preserving Intellectual Property
Corporate Executives possess unique knowledge and access to intellectual property, financial/pricing strategies, internal structure and client lists. Managerial, Sales and IT personnel share access to some or all of this information – representing the most valuable assets within a corporation. When these employees switch jobs, sometimes a copy of this information also leaves, and not accidentally. Computers remain the preferred weapon of choice for employees with malfescence on their mind, while criminals have an array of new hardware at their disposal for concealing information. Corporations are also susceptible to wrongful termination actions from former employees - knowing that critical information related to the termination has likely been destroyed or lost in a maze of electronic data.
