Intellectual Property comes in many different forms and structures and can include copyrighted material such as literary and artistic work, as well as ideation property including patents, business methods, industrial processes, product designs, and software code.
IP is most often compromised by privileged users to be sold to competitors or brought as a gift by disgruntled employees to their new place of employment. These losses often amount to millions of dollars in both revenue and asset losses. Most companies are forced to implement restrictive security measures that decrease employee productivity and often create even greater security risks as well meaning employees bypass security policies because they are too burdensome.
