Trade Secrets: Losing Your Trade Secrets at a High Altitude

Let me say, I hate flying. Which may be why I never thought of the problem The Workplace Privacy Counsel writes about in Is Confidential Business Information Safe At 30,000 Feet?.

Once the service and the attendant risks are better understood, employers can modify existing electronic resources policies, or prepare new policies, to address the most recent risk to privacy in the wired business world.
