Data-rich
















                                         Today’s corporation makes available more

                                         data about its performance, than it ever

                                         did. Even confidential information is not
                                         safe.  Leaks of sensitive information are

                                         now common place. One sure way to get a

                                         document noticed and carefully read is to
                                         mark it as “Confidential”.  Even before the

                                         internet, we lived in a world that was rich

                                         with data albeit slightly less accessible.  In
                                         the USA, the  Freedom of Information Act

                                         means that almost all data can be made

                                         available to everyone on request.  No

                                         secrets – just transparency.  The major
                                         group can spend months trawling through

                                         data.  It is then presented as ‘a major leak

                                         of a secret report’ in order to increase its

                                         media saleability.
