From the Paper:

"Security has always been an issue with companies that keep sensitive records regarding clients and their business, but the issue has become more complex in an era in which many records are kept on computer so that putting records under lock and key can only be part of the solution. In the current case, the client has particular concerns and is willing to pay any amount of money to protect financial records, health records, and communication data such as codeword archives, precious gems/stones/minerals, and formulas for nuclear energy. This client is further concerned about the current personnel responsible for these duties and curious about how to expand his operations to do more in this area, and the client wants to know our plan for bringing on trusted personnel and how he can protect against adversaries."
