"Who are The Gray Berets,
and what should I expect
in addition to eavesdropping?"
Murray Associates Executive Briefing #486
The Gray Berets
We are seeing a more militant edge to business competition these days.
- Competitive intelligence gone malignant.
- Mission Impossible without the gadgets.
American corporations are historically: late adopters / early victims.
Example... Electronic eavesdropping inspections became a standard practice in the US relatively recently. Corporate eavesdropping and espionage have been around a whole lot longer.
A business school in Paris now offers executive infowar training in...
- Psychological deception
- Infowar basics
- Perception management
- Interference and Counter-interference
- Subversive techniques
- Information destabilization The School of Economic Warfare...
With the advent of a "School of Economic Warfare," and its me-too-zoos of infowar trainers, your next Gray Beret opposition segment will likely be... your competition.
This is just one small part of the overall migration of military
intelligence tactics to the economic battlefield. Given the big picture, this is not surprising.
Gray Berets are just another thing we keep in mind when determining how best to protect you.
