Primes

• Information Hiding
  • In organisations and governance it is cabinet confidentiality (internal disagreement hidden behind a unified decision), peer-review anonymity, the corporate veil, trade-secret protection, and classified-document compartmentalisation.

    This sourceEstablishes the legal apparatus by which an organization conceals internally valuable information (proprietary processes, strategies, customer lists) behind reasonable-secrecy measures to control external dependence — the organizational/governance instance of a deliberately drawn boundary with controlled crossings (alongside the corporate veil and confidentiality regimes).

    Supported in partVerified against the work's full text

    The Wex entry covers only the trade-secret item in the list: legally protected organisational secrecy kept by reasonable measures. It says nothing of the other four examples.

    “Trade secret protection depends on the information remaining secret, and on the owner taking reasonable steps to protect it.”

Verification

Does it exist? Not checked yet. This entry carries no identifier to resolve. It was extracted from the citation as written in the article, normalized, and deduplicated against the rest of the registry.

Does it back the claim? Read against the text for 1 of 1 citation: 1 supported in part. Each verdict is shown under its citation below, with what in the work backs the sentence.

Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
