Well-known examples of trade secrets include the formula for Coca-Cola, the recipe for Kentucky Fried Chicken, and the algorithm used by Google’s search engine. To succeed in the global marketplace, U.S. firms depend upon their trade secrets, which increasingly are becoming their most valuable intangible assets. However, U.S. companies annually suffer billions of dollars in losses due to the theft of their trade secrets by employees, corporate competitors, and even foreign governments. Stealing trade secrets has increasingly involved the use of cyberspace, advanced computer technologies, and mobile communication devices, thus making the theft relatively anonymous and difficult to detect. This book discusses the theft issues, legal protections and industry perspectives on trade secrets. 000040729 650_0 $$aTrade secrets$$xLaw and legislation$$xUnited States 000040729 650_0 $$aCivil procedure$$xUnited States 000040729 650_0 $$aLaw 000040729 655_4 $$aElectronic books 000040729 7102_ $$aNova Science Publishers, Incorporated 000040729 7972_ $$aProQuest (Firm) 000040729 830__ $$aBusiness Issues, Competition and Entrepreneurship 000040729 85640 $$uhttps://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/wipo/detail.action?docID=2084565$$zView this Ebook 000040729 904__ $$aBook 000040729 942__ $$2ddc$$cEBOOK 000040729 980__ $$aBIB 000040729 980__ $$aOS
