Today’s Security Threats

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) April 18, 2011 -- Barry Brandman, President of Danbee Investigations , Midland Park, New Jersey will be a featured speaker for the Warehousing Education and Research Council at their annual conference, which will be held at the Walt Disney World Swan and Dolphin Resort May 15-18, 2011. His presentation is entitled, “Today’s Security Threats” and will be attended by executives from a broad cross section of industry.

Employee theft has become a critical financial problem, costing billions of dollars each year and forcing many unsuspecting companies into bankruptcy. Employee theft is estimated to cost U.S. companies more than $40 billion a year, and is responsible for nearly one third of all corporate bankruptcies. To make matters worse, internal theft always escalates in a tough economy. Consequently, white and blue collar crime has spiked to record levels.

Mr. Brandman, considered one of the nation’s top security experts, will be discussing where companies are most vulnerable as well as tried and proven techniques that can protect businesses against corporate criminals.

He will be revealing actual case histories, explaining many of the subtle, devious methods used by employees working in collusion to steal significant quantities of inventory – in plain view of unsuspecting managers and supervisors. He’ll also discuss how the internet has become a high tech conduit for hundreds of millions of dollars of stolen goods.
