SBRM, Small Business Rights Management: Securing Your Company Assets Marilee Veniegas and Nathan Kully Contributing Writer 2006-06-06

Have you ever found a proposal of yours in the hands of a competitor... Unfortunately, far too many small businesses these days have experienced this issue.

In 2005, according to the FBI/CSI report, 56% of businesses reported that there had been unauthorized use of information within the company's computer systems(1).
