CIA, Inc.:  Espionage and the Craft of Business Intelligence
By:  F.W. Rustmann, Jr.
     

  
Every major government recognizes the value of intelligence and employs an intelligence service to collect it for them.  Businesses should be no different.  Knowing how to gather information on your competitors, being able to anticipate their next move, and preventing them from stealing your secrets are critical keys to success in the new economy.  Executives, entrepreneurs, and others must realize their companies’ success partially depends on their knowledge and implementation of business intelligence.  This book teaches the principles of intelligence and counterintelligence and uses the CIA's methods as a model for the business world.  

   CIA, Inc. (Brassey's, 2002) explores the major aspects of business intelligence, including competitor intelligence, risk analysis, business and market analysis, counterintelligence, background investigations, due diligence, and security surveys.       Mr. Rustmann draws on his experience as a CIA operations officer and a pioneer in the field of corporate intelligence to describe the collection, analysis, authentication, and reporting of intelligence.
