The value of many companies lies in their intellectual property. This may include confidential information, marketing or promotional material, proprietary designs or processes. Recent legal developments now extend copyright to include marketing databases. Opponents may attempt to obtain this information in a variety of ways. This may include infiltrating or compromising staff, or through the use of third party contractors or consultants.

Haymarket has developed techniques that will create a unique electronic fingerprint of selected items of confidential information or data. This enables large amount of data to be searched very quickly for evidence of misappropriated confidential information.

Example

A high technology company was concerned about the recent loss of its entire marketing team. A covert review of recent email activity showed that confidential and proprietary information may have been sent to a third party.

A Search Order was quickly obtained from the High Court and the subsequent search of laptop computers owned by the former employees showed that a very large amount of confidential information had been misappropriated. This resulted in a payment of over £2 million in damages and costs, together with injunctions against the former employees.
