Video chat on securing data via trade secret protection in the Philippines
11 August 2020
Would you like to know how to use trade secret protection to secure the data you process?
Quisumbing Torres in Manila presents its QT Talks Series – short on-demand video chat recordings about various legal issues faced by Philippine business operators. Data security is among these issues.
“Trade Secret Protection as a Means of Protecting Data” is the title of the first episode under QT Talk Series’s video chats on digital transformation.
According to the firm, the crucial issue in data protection is who controls access to and use of this data. To what degree does this control extend is another key question that should be answered.
However, data is not covered by statutory protection. Instead, it could be secured as a trade secret.
In the episode, Quisumbing Torres’s Divina Ilas-Panganiban, Felicisimo Agas III and Jose Angelo Tiglao will explain these issues within the Philippine legal context and share practical tips for business operators, including multinationals.
“Trade Secret Protection as a Means of Protecting Data” is the first topic under QT Talks. Future topics will include Ease of Doing Business with E-Signatures: A Legal and Technical Approach, Current Trends in the CG&R Industry in light of COVID-19 and General Legal and Regulatory Considerations on Selling Online.
