U.S. officials have warned for years that foreign intelligence services target American companies with valuable technology. The approach rarely looks like espionage. It looks like business: an investor introduction, a partnership proposal, a consulting offer to a key engineer, a talent program nomination.
Companies usually discover the problem late — when an employee is charged, a transaction collapses under regulatory review, or a board learns it had no process for the moment an approach was first made. A modest amount of preparation, done early, mitigates most of this risk.
Our Services
Board & Executive Briefings
Private briefings for boards and executive teams on the current targeting landscape for frontier-technology companies, directors' oversight responsibilities, and the control environment investors and regulators now expect.
Readiness Assessments
A structured review of insider-risk and export-control exposure: technology access controls, personnel and visiting-researcher screening, deemed-export risk, investor and counterparty vetting, and internal reporting and documentation procedures when an approach occurs.
Team Training
Awareness training for engineering, business development, and investor-relations staff: how approaches are made, the indicators to recognize, and the correct internal and external response — including when to involve counsel and federal authorities. Delivered in English or Chinese.
