Winkler is the author of Spies Among Us, Zen and the Art of Information Security, Corporate Espionage, and co-author of Through the Eyes of the Enemy. He has been quoted in Forbes, USA Today, Wall Street Journal, San Francisco Chronicle, Washington Post, Planet Internet, and Business 2.0. He knows what he’s talking about. You can’t go wrong following his advice.
