Protect Your IP
Tradelok addresses the risks where proprietary information is most exposed: external collaboration, employee mobility, and trade secret protection.
FOR THE CTO & ENGINEERING LEADERS
01
Engineers need to share sensitive information with trusted partners
NDAs are simply not enough to de-risk engineering collaborations with suppliers, JV partners, and customers. The IP and proprietary information shared with trusted parties can easily be misused or inadvertently put at risk.
The blind spots in Engineering CollaborationsNo tracking of IP that is exposed
No centralized audit trails of who is sharing or receiving what
No controls once file attachments are transmitted to recipients
Engineers spending time on manual processes to share files externally
TRADELOK LETS TEAMS01
Collaborate with suppliers and customers confidently
Protect your most valuable IP during external sharing without slowing down the business. Tradelok:
Implements file sharing controls without disrupting the way engineers are used to working
Signals to your trusted parties that you take IP protection seriously
02
Strengthen IP defensibility
Create a robust paper trail of disclosure activity to maintain a litigation-ready posture if trust is broken.
03
Preemptively mitigate IP risk
Understand which external collaborators pose the greatest risk in terms of IP access to take proper measures in advance.
02
FOR INSIDER RISK TEAMSSupercharge your employee mobility program.
Proprietary information can leak out as employees join competitors. Manually combing through exfiltrated files is unscalable, and DLP reports are full of noise.
Tradelok detects company IP out of the box using our proprietary, context-aware AI models fine tuned for IP.
Conduct IP risk assessments of departing employees within seconds to determine whether an insider risk investigation is needed. Make this part of your standard off-boarding process.
FOR IP & LEGAL TEAMS03
Go beyond patents and NDAs.
Patents don’t protect you when your inventors share trade secrets and confidential information with external innovation partners. And NDAs are rarely ever enforced.
With Tradelok, implement reasonable measures through automated controls and conduct IP risk assessments to understand who is accessing your most sensitive information, and how. Flag when trade secrets are being exposed in real time to manage risk.
The result: Operationalize your Trade Secret Protection Program
Reasonable measures
Demonstrate the controls that qualify your information as a protected trade secret, beyond the mere existence of static policies.
Automated controls for workflows
Your trade secret policies and information sharing procedures are no longer just pieces of paper. Put them into effect using Tradelok’s automated controls.
IP risk assessments
Drive better outcomes by understanding who is accessing your most sensitive information, and how.
Know which NDAs teams depend on the most, where your vendor risk is based on actual operational data, and which teams pose the largest risk for IP leakage.
