Stolen date (including trade secrets) is often used for competitive advantage and often provides unique insight into the operation of the organization and its products and services. In some cases, particularly with small- and medium-size organizations, the costs associated with data theft can cause the organization to go out of business. The negative effects do not stop there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Theft of this valuable business asset can have serious repercussion that extends well beyond the organization from which it was stolen.\u00a0 If this is a concerted effort, it can negatively affect a nation\u2019s economy and become a <span class=\"rte rte-comment\">.\u00a0As I have stated before, if large enough a negative impact on a country\u2019s economy is a <\/span>national security threat. All of this is what drove the White House to publish <a href=\"https:\/\/www.whitehouse.gov\/sites\/default\/files\/omb\/IPEC\/admin_strategy_on_mitigating_the_theft_of_u.s._trade_secrets.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">Administration Strategy on Mitigating the Theft of U.S. Trade Secrets<\/a> in 2013. While relatively new, many are beginning to question if the strategy is enough or even working given all the publicity about recent data thefts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The sheer volume of data assets theft now poses a serious transnational security risk that must be addressed<span class=\"rte rte-comment\"> by business, industry and the U.S. government<\/span>.\u00a0<span class=\"rte rte-comment\">Whether it is trade secrets, information\u00a0or other data, i<\/span>It\u2019s time for a change in the way we have tried to address this issue. We have all seen reports about China and Russia being behind the theft of the intellectual property from U.S. businesses, but the problem is much larger<span class=\"rte rte-comment\"> and includes foreign businesses<\/span>. Many believe that organized crime poses<span class=\"rte rte-comment\"> just <\/span>as big a threat to our data assets as China and Russia.\u00a0We should not forget the reports of data theft within the professional sports environment as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Developing a solution to this growing problem requires the cooperation between business, industry\u00a0and the U.S. government. Given that is fundamental, many do not hold much hope for a solution anytime soon. Now fast forward a few years and think about the significant increase in the value of corporate data asset. Now factor in the exabyte scale of big data and looking at the zettabyte level just over the horizon. Think about the cost of data theft and the impact to the U.S. economy given those two constructs. Even if the growth projects are only 50 percent accurate, the losses to businesses will be devastating and the impact on the nation&#8217;s economy scary to say the least.\u00a0That is why big data is rapidly becoming a strategic target by criminals and rogue nation-states. Diplomatic solutions are likely to miss the mark\u00a0while military retaliation will remain unlikely. That is why many that study cybersecurity trends have come to believe and accept that retaliation by the private sector will grow and is likely to become the norm.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Big data has captured the headlines for a number of months
