Foley is pleased to announce the launch of a new five part Web conference series, Trade Secrets and Noncompete Agreements: What You Need to Know
The first session, Spotlight: Wielding the Power of the Federal Computer Fraud and Abuse Act took place on September 17, 2009.
The series kicks off with a spotlight on an important developing area of the law that has been in the news in recent months: the use of the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act in the employment context to recover computers, company information, and the costs of forensic analyses. We discussed the law, why it will help, and what you need to know about it to ensure that you make the most of it.
Russell Beck is the Foley attorney responsible for the content of this series.
