The Economic Espionage Act (EEA) of 1996 is a federal law in the United States that helps protect businesses and their information from being stolen. This law makes it illegal for people to try to steal secret business information, especially when they plan to use the information to make money. The law also punishes people who help with the stealing, or try to use or sell the stolen information.
The EEA of 1996 helps protect businesses and their information from being stolen by punishing people who try to steal and use secret business information. This includes both people who work for companies and people who don’t. It's important for businesses to protect their information, because if someone steals it, they could make money off of it which would be unfair.
The EEA of 1996 is a very important law because it helps keep businesses safe from thieves. It also helps make sure that everyone who wants to make money from their hard work gets a fair chance.
