Cosecure understands that not all employees will stay with an organization until they retire. Some will leave gracefully for better opportunities, and some will leave for personal reasons. However, some employees will leave disgruntled and will perhaps feel entitled to take intellectual property with them.
Some employees will feel that intellectual property (IP) they worked on during their tenure is theirs for the taking. If your employment agreements specify that the company retains all IP rights, then the employee is not entitled to take it with them when they leave.
A targeted digital forensic assessment of the departing employee’s computer, other electronic devices, and email can help to determine if any of the company’s IP left with the employee. Contact us today for a free quote.
