Once chips start coming out of the machine, proprietary is over, so what's the worry?
There's always the usual NDA (non-disclosure agreement)
It does leave the following question - if a company has an NDA, and they accept data into their system, how do they maintain that data while managing long-term backups if the agreement requires disposal of the data after a time limit (end of bid time, end of contract, particular date?)
Are there vaulting solutions that allow expiration of data that prevent major backups from containing proprietary data, while still keeping a backup that is only valid for limited times?
