We are pleased to announce that Sarju has presented a webinar hosted by HROptions. The presentation included a live question and answer session with participants that answered questions about these important issues directly.

Course Description:

Trade secrets can exist in virtually any business and are among a company’s greatest assets. But trade secrets are also extremely vulnerable to theft and loss, particularly by employees – who have direct and daily access to the company’s crown jewels. When employees leave your company, do you know where they are going, and what they might be taking with them? Are they starting a competing business? Are they joining a competitor? You may not know until it is too late – which is why it is impor-tant to have a plan in place to protect your trade secrets.

With the increasing prevalence of technology in the workplace (e.g. iPhones, flash drives, cloud computing) and new means of mass communication (e.g. Facebook, Twitter), companies face ever-evolving challenges in determining how to adequately protect their confidential and proprietary information from disclosure. Sarju will provide you with an understanding of:

• What constitutes a trade secret;
• How to identify your company’s trade secrets;
• Various ways in which employees can steal your company’s trade se-crets;
• Security measures for protecting your trade secrets;
• Employee obligations and appropri-ate documentation; and
• Early detection of trade secret theft
