Nowadays, confidential information is one of the strategic keys through which businesses pursue their objectives and generate value. At times, this information may be the subject of specific protection through traditional industrial property rights. Nonetheless, even when the prerequisites are not met for a registered right, the information may benefit from a type of protection, provided that it has value for the company and, as such, is kept secret.

Thus, company information, internal research, technical-industrial and commercial experience can be protected if it is secret, has economic value as a result of its secrecy and is subject to suitable protection measures.

Perani Pozzi Associati works closely with businesses through the process of protecting confidential information and industrial secrets, by defining and implementing a targeted protection strategy inside and outside the company, regarding the technical-IT as well as legal aspects.

Specifically, in order to achieve the utmost protection, the firm works with security and information technology experts in order to assist them in defining policies and other security measures to protect company information and in exploiting such information financially, as well as in defining procedures for recovering, storing and analysing possible sources of evidence regarding the theft of confidential information.

In the event of the theft of confidential information by competitors or employees, the firm provides the necessary assistance in legal proceedings.
