Failure to adequately protect your company’s proprietary information will allow your competitors and ex-employees to reduce your profits. The trade secret laws will help prevent such misfortune if your company acts in accordance with its requirements.
Imagine if your top employee left your company. The employee had learned every major area of your company. S/he was an invaluable asset to the company. Now imagine if that employee set up his/her own business in direct competition with you or became an employee of your toughest competitor. You can stop this individual if your company protected its business information properly under the trade secret laws. Proper protection requires action today to be ready for tomorrow.
