BUSINESS AND ESPIONAGE

Commercial espionage plays an important part in the business world. The race to find the latest and most lucrative innovation has become more elaborate with fierce competition pushing companies to be deceitful, to commit theft, in some cases even murder. The first spying scandal involving German industrial tycoon Eberhard Hoesch and the Formula One espionage controversy between Ferrari and McLaren, are perfect examples of how corporate sabotage can escalate. In this era of data breaches and cyber attacks, the industrial and corporate worlds are facing colossal challenges to protect their technology and secrets.
