Investigating Insider IP Theft

Joseph Alesia, senior counsel for the business integrity group at Nokia wrote an extremely informative article titled, “The enemy within: investigating insider IP Theft” published in FINANCIER WORLDWIDE MAGAZINE

Here are a few of his comments, “What most company stakeholders pay far less attention to, at their own peril, is the more insidious death by a thousand cuts – critically, valuable intellectual property (IP) theft committed by company insiders…

“Picture a threat equation where ‘threat = likelihood x vulnerability x impact’. The likelihood of an insider stealing, or attempting to steal, a company’s IP is very high.”

He divides his article into the following sections:

And one final Alesia quote, “but a well-structured and executed investigation can best address and reduce the threat of insider IP theft by disrupting the impact factor.”

I could not agree with him more, and highly recommend you read his article word-for-word.
