Actual effective measures on Information Theft -Focused on revision of Japan’s Prevention of Unfair Competition Act in 2015-

There could be some discussion of criminalization as the spying or computer hacking continues, and lifetime employment falls and debates between company and employee are increasing. On the revised Act 2003, penalty on trade secret piracy was added. On the revised Act 2005, penalty on retired employee’s leaking of trade secret and dual liability on corporate body were also added. Also, the Act 2005 fortified punishment of foreign criminal and second acquisitor as Principals. In 2015, the Act erased the punishment of attempted and personal accusation in Infringement on Secrecy and punished additionally usage of trade secret in abroad and founded the randomly forfeit of corruption profits. On this paper, I would consider effective measures on information theft(Infringement on Secrecy) on Unfair Competition Prevention and Trade Secret Protection Act based on analyzing the Japan’s Unfair Competition Prevention’s revision trend and Japan’s judical precedent.
