Scenarios for secure communications
|
People
may need to resource to security countermeasures to protect themselves
against competitive intelligence activities, corporate espionage,
extortion, media snooping, activists, terrorism, invasion of their
personal privacy, etc.
 Among the
various types of communications that should be protected
against illegal eavesdropping, we could mention: privileged
conversations between clients and their counsel, company executives or
board members discussing mergers and acquisitions, marketing
strategies, new product development, lawsuit strategies, internal
politics, labor negotiations, etc.
 Competitive intelligence is the process by which information is
collected and transformed into valuable intelligence for use in
tactical and strategic business decisions. Corporate Security Officers
may select the easy path: trust that their current and potential
competitors' "Competitive Intelligence" departments would resource only
to legal approaches to snoop on them.. However, the stakes may be too
high to adopt such a conservative strategy.
But it is
not just corporate executives who may be targeted by illegal surveillance
activities. Other targets include: famous
people, movie
stars, celebrities, scientists, bankers, employees of
companies
subject to hostile takeovers, real estate development
planners, politicians, diplomats and their staff, people involved
in high
bidding wars, political campaign offices, journalists, etc.
If
somebody manages to illegally intercept your cellular communication,
Sigillu will protect its content
with strong military-grade encryption even against the
most sophisticated interception
devices.
