Trade secrets (or undisclosed information ) are also protected under the TRIPS Agreement [34]. Despite this international agreement, there is a wide range of difference in the manner in which countries implement these provisions. Few countries, apart from the United States, have explicit provisions in their laws on the protection of trade secrets. In some countries, protection is only granted when a former employee takes confidential information to a new employer, whereas in other countries, protection is granted more widely. Unfortunately, once a trade secret is no longer a trade secret it can be freely used by anybody else who obtained the information fairly. The value of the trade secret is thus much more limited than, for example, patents or copyrights.

A trade secret has no geographical boundaries and no fixed lifetime. It expires when the subject matter becomes "generally known, so that it is no longer a secret. Comments on the point are too lengthy to explore here. Much of the law devolves from the centuries old relationship of master and servant. If the master disclosed a trade secret to a servant, in confidence, the parties were of equal size. With modem corporations and individual employees the sizes are disproportionate. Still, however, a secret or confidential information can pass from one to the other. A corporation may spread a confidence among as many as have a reasonable need to know without the secret s losing its confidential status, but if spread too widely, the secret aspect may be lost.
