For businesses owning intellectual property, a growing problem is cybertheft, where an unauthorized person uses computers, smartphones or the internet to find, abuse or access IP. When a property owner suspects cybertheft, discovery of what actually happened and how can be difficult, as the investigation requires both legal and forensic skill. The legal terms posted on web pages (including both the web site of the property owner and the web page/social networking page of the suspect) can be vital in a cybertheft investigation. http://legal-beagle.typepad.
