Trade secrets may variously include technologies, processes,
formulas, and sensitive customer information. Accordingly, trade
secrets often confer significant profit and competitive advantage
to their owner. For this reason, companies are increasingly
enforcing their legal rights related to unauthorized usage of their
trade secrets under state and/or federal laws. At the same time, it
is of strategic interest to consider how best to protect and
commercially exploit trade secrets; in particular in the era of
cybersecurity threats.
This panel discussion will provide viewpoints and guidance from
the perspective of outside legal counsel, internal legal counsel,
and damages/valuation expertise as to best practices in protecting,
enforcing, and exploiting trade secrets.
The content of this article is intended to provide a general
guide to the subject matter. Specialist advice should be sought
