Trade Secret Protection

Keep Innovation Confidential. Stay Ahead of the Curve.

🔐 What is a Trade Secret?

A trade secret is confidential business information—such as formulas, algorithms, methods, or processes—that gives your company a competitive edge. Unlike patents, trade secrets are not disclosed publicly and can last indefinitely, as long as secrecy is maintained.
