Yep the problem is big. Note that E&Y laptops were stolen, but corrupt
employees stories seldom become public.

...also about 2 years ago there was a Israeli company that designed a MS
trojan *just* to infect their rival. It broke out in the news a little

Look recently at the last Word and Excel vulnerabilities. They were
discovered late because the author was specifically targeting a couple of
companies rather than releasing it on the World. Now his/her motive could
be many things: revenge, corporate espionage, etc, etc
...but yes, corporate spying is quite lucrative...

subset when identity is involved) most of the espionage type activity
is never mentioned in public.
That makes the How big impossible to guage.
