Webinar Series: Safeguarding Your Secrets in the Digital Age - Part 3

Webinar | 11.12.19, 7:00 AM EST - 8:00 AM EST

Protecting trade secrets in the digital age is a modern reality, with confidential information easily stored, sent, and received electronically. Nevertheless, the most significant security breaches often arise from human behavior. 


Join us for three part webinar series on how you can get ahead of the curve to safeguard your trade secrets. In Part 3, we will highlight best practices to protect your trade secrets, especially when you are required to share them externally or when you want to collaborate with third parties. We will discuss tips for drafting, monitoring and enforcing Non-Disclosure Agreements with third parties, and focus on key considerations when working with the government or across international borders. Also the consequences and changes introduced by the recently transposed EU Directive on the protection of Trade Secrets will be discussed.
