# Trade Secret Training

Trade Secret Training is a specialized educational program focused on the practical aspects of protecting confidential information. Under Georgian law, information is considered a trade secret only if the company takes "reasonable measures" to protect it. Employee training is precisely one of the main "reasonable measures." If an employee does not know what a secret is, how to handle it, and what risks accompany its disclosure, even the most expensive technical security systems are powerless. This service helps companies reduce the risk of information leakage due to human factors.

## What Trade Secret Training Covers

Experts on Legal.ge ensure staff preparation in the following areas:

-   **Secret Identification:** How an employee can distinguish public information from a trade secret.
-   **Security Hygiene:** Password management, email security, recognizing and avoiding phishing.
-   **Physical Security:** "Clean desk" policy, rules for document destruction, visitor reception protocols.
-   **Remote Work Rules:** Working with confidential information from home or public spaces (cafes, airports).
-   **Incident Response:** Whom and how an employee should notify if they suspect an information leak.

### Why invest in trade secret training?

Most data leaks are caused by human error, not hackers. Training reduces this risk significantly and serves as legal proof that your company took "reasonable measures" to protect its IP.

### Does the training cover remote work security?

Yes, we focus heavily on remote work hygiene: securing home Wi-Fi, using VPNs, not leaving screens unlocked, and handling confidential calls in private spaces.

### Who should attend the training?

Everyone with access to sensitive data should attend, from receptionists to top executives. IT staff and HR often require specialized modules tailored to their specific access levels.

### Can you customize the training for my industry?

Absolutely. A pharmaceutical company has different secrets than a software firm. We tailor scenarios and examples to match your specific business risks and workflow.
