Non-Disclosure Violation

A Non-Disclosure Violation occurs when a person or organization improperly shares confidential information that they are legally obligated to keep secret. This often happens when one party discloses sensitive data, like trade secrets or personal details, without permission or outside the terms of a non-disclosure agreement (NDA). Such violations can lead to legal consequences, including lawsuits and financial penalties, as they compromise trust and security between the involved parties. Protecting confidentiality is essential in many business and personal relationships to safeguard competitive advantage and privacy.
