Question:

Footnote Number 27. Morgan Stanley's Prime Brokerage Division provides financial and administrative services to numerous hedge funds. As a consultant to Morgan Stanley and its Information Technology Department, Ted Michaels is responsible for securing computer connections between Morgan Stanley and its Prime Brokerage clients. Ted has access to numerous confidential and proprietary documents. These documents include a list of all of Stanley's Prime Brokerage hedge fund clients along with the formulas used to calculate the rates paid by clients to Stanley for prime brokerage services. Ted is approached by Sarah Pearl who is a former Morgan Stanley client service representative. Sarah wants to start a consulting firm with Ted using the confidential client list. She believes together they can provide the same services to these clients at a lower cost. After a number of phone calls and e-mails, she talks Ted into sending the client list to her as an e-mail attachment. Using Footnote 27, decide which software listed in the footnote could have been used to detect this conspiracy, and describe in detail your reasons for your software selection. You may want to search the Internet to collect more information about the software packages you have selected before you submit your reasons as to why you have decided your software list is the best solution.
