A plan to beat the industrial spy was launched last week by Management Investigations Ltd., the counter-espionage agency set up 18 months ago by Mr, R.B. Matthews, a former Army intelligence officer. Management Investigations is now offering firms wishing to guard against or unmask industrial spies a "security package deal." For a basic annual fee of £1,500 the agency undertakes: 1. To carry out a security survey of the firm's premises, 2, To have a director of the agency attend every meeting of the Board
where security matters are discussed. 3, To supervise the running of the security department. 4. To provide up to 12 hours of security training for members of the
staff, including senior management. 5. To carry out one probe exercise a year to test the effectiveness
of the security arrangements. 6. To investigate any breaches of security that may occur during the year. Management Investigations have just published the first of a series of monthly news-letters devoted to industrial espionage. The first issue contains an article describing "technical aids" such as a wireless microphone concealed in a cigarette pack and transmitters hidden in a telephone handset."
