In today's highly competitive and innovation-driven economy, intellectual property (IP) is one of the most valuable assets a business can own. Intellectual property encompasses a wide range of intangible assets, including patents, trademarks, copyrights, trade secrets, and proprietary technology. Unfortunately, the value of these assets also makes them a prime target for theft. Intellectual property theft can cause significant financial losses, damage to a company's reputation, and the loss of competitive advantage.
