Identifying and protecting confidential information is critical in establishing a successful business. A nondisclosure agreement is limited to the protection of a business’s information and trade secrets. Often times the signing of a nondisclosure agreement is a condition of employment.

These agreements usually state that the employee agrees to hold in strict confidence the employer’s confidential data and other information concerning products, services, operations, suppliers, and customers. The employee agrees to be responsible for the safeguarding and security of the information that he or she is privy to or has access to during his or her employment.
