What is "reverse engineering?"
Reverse engineering is the determination of someone else's trade secret information via examination and testing of publicly available information. While the amount of effort needed to reverse engineer can show the information is readily ascertainable, this defense applies even when the reverse engineering is difficult and the information is not readily ascertainable. Reverse engineering is a complete defense, since it shows the information, trade secret or otherwise, was properly acquired from public sources of information.
