The following scenario is more common—and more troubling—than ever before. A high ranking employee who has signed an agreement to preserve the confidentiality of business plans, financial information, and trade secrets stealthily collects confidential information belonging to the employer. The employee uses a work laptop to access this type of information on the company computer system. This information may be as simple as a few emails, but it may also be strategic business plans, revenue forecasts, new business targets, personnel files, executive deliberations on promotions, legal advice from counsel, records of transactions on a government contract, discount pricing information, or other trade secrets or privileged information.
