According to Sheryl Willert in "Practical Considerations To Protect Trade Secrets," several basic requirements for protecting trade secrets can be gleaned from the cases discussed in her article:
Reasonable precautions against industrial espionage
Marking plans and documents 'confidential'
Use of 'confidentiality' legends, warnings and agreements
Restricting visitors and similar types of plant security
Locking up or otherwise securing sensitive information
Taking technical precautions, such as dividing the system into steps handled by different individuals or departments
Copy protection and embedded codes to trace copies
Employee exit interviews.
