Opis

In order to remain competitive in the market, it is crucial for many companies to differentiate themselves from their competitors. This can be achieved through innovations and methods developed in-house, which are used, for example, in production processes and can be classified as trade secrets. As a result, it is particularly important for certain organisations to protect the know-how they have developed and accumulated, whether tangible or intangible, from third parties. Various parties, such as competing companies, government organisations or stakeholders, may be interested in this data, recipes or designs. One of the groups that may have an interest in these secrets is the company's employees. They are in a position to disclose the information they have acquired to external interested parties, thereby deliberately causing considerable damage to the company.
