On 21 October, TSCM Services is presenting a corporate business counterintelligence awareness briefing for decision-makers and those responsible for the protection of corporate information. The event will be held from 8:30-12:15 at the Centurion Lake Hotel.
The briefing will cover the scope of the information theft problem, possible indicators of espionage and business intelligence operations, the situation in South Africa, trade craft and how to integrate counterintelligence with a company's security and protection programmes.
The original concept of security and the protection of property against conventional threats have also changed. Security departments are increasingly being given more responsibilities but unfortunately training budgets and professional development are not keeping pace with these changes. We live in a world of portable information with various new communication devices in which the traditional security perimeter has become an illusion. The danger of business intelligence is often underestimated as most of the time there are no overt signs or indications of the attack against a company, making it difficult to spot.
The final date for registration is 14 October. For additional information or a registration form, please visit 'Events' at www.tscm.co.za or contact Callie Nienaber on 012 664 3157.
