Présentation de l'éditeur

A top investigator and security advisor, he has spent the last twenty years doing covert sleuthing for everyone from Fortune 500 companies to government agencies to A-list Hollywood celebrities. Now this professional insider shares the tools of his trade, and offers concrete tips for safeguarding our lives from the threats posed by the everyday conveniences we take for granted, from the cell phone to the family car. You'll learn about:

* Shoulder surfing

* And what you can do to protect yourself

Entertaining, informative, and instructive, with thrilling accounts of McKeown's high-profile cases, Your Secrets Are My Business is a must-read for everyone who wants to keep their secrets to themselves.

Revue de presse

“Looks hard and deep into the burgeoning threat of information thievery. Kevin McKeown, a veteran government and corporate investigator, draws on dozens of his past cases to show how easy it is for criminals to gather personal information on average consumers. McKeown spends the first half of his book detailing how we leave information trails behind us—through our daily habits, by driving a car, by using a telephone, and so on. The book's second half explains how investigators, as well as criminals, pick up those trails. He ends each chapter with specific tips on what consumers can do to keep their information to themselves.”—Harry Wessel, Orlando Sentinel (Florida)
