- CONTROLLING THE USE OF SENSITIVE INFORMATION
by Ed Colet
- Executive Editor-at-Large Inderpal Bhandari presents a guest editorial by Virtual Gold's Acting Director of Research:
- Data mining patterns can provide an Organization with a substantial competitive advantage. Because the information can provide a competitive edge, it is also information that is usually sensitive and/or proprietary. Herein lies a dilemma. While it is important to disseminate information as widely as possible to the right people to achieve maximum benefits, it is also important to ensure that information is not misused in such a way that it compromises competitive advantages. In this column, I summarize some new technologies designed to control the use of sensitive material.
