• W286641542 abstract "IntroductionPortable equipment, such as laptop computers, flash drives, portable hard drives and smart phones, can improve employee productivity in the modern workplace.^sup1^ Coupled with internet access, this equipment also allows the employee to work off site while still permitting access to the employer's computer network.^sup2^ Unfortunately, this technology also makes it incredibly easy for an employee to take information from the company's computer system.^sup3^ If this occurs, the company may have a claim against the employee under the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act (CFAA).^sup4^Under the CFAA, a civil remedy may be available to the employer if the employee accessed the computer authorization.^sup5^ However, there is currently a split among federal courts on the definition of authorization, specifically whether an employee, who was given permission to access the employer's computer system as part of the employment arrangement, falls within this definition when the employee accesses the information for an improper purpose, such as to misappropriate the information.^sup6^Stating a claim under the CFAA for access authorization can be tricky for the employer though. And while a number of articles address the statute and existing case law, there do not appear to be any case studies discussing the CFAA that can be used in the classroom to instruct future business owners.^sup7^ This article provides such a case study along with a discussion about the nuances of the statute and how it is treated in different jurisdictions. To explain these nuances, this article will begin with the case study in Part I. This case study will be used to introduce the current state of the law concerning employee access to information authorization under the CFAA. It will attempt to clarify the underlying circumstances that may permit an employer to properly state a claim for recovery in each jurisdiction. Teaching objectives for the case study are found in Part II. Part III is a teaching note on the CFAA with emphasis on the specific sections typically asserted against former employees for accessing information from the computer system authorization along with a comparison of case law interpreting the phrase authorization under the statute. This part provides suggested answers to the discussion questions to illustrate the application of the law to the facts in the case study.I. A Case Study on the CFAA with Discussion Questions Harper, Miller, & Associates, Inc., a graphic design firm, has been in business for twenty years. The company currently employs forty-two people. In the course of the company's twenty years of business, Harper, Miller, & Associates, Inc., spent a considerable amount of money perfecting the originality of its graphic designs. As a result, the company developed a reputation as a good company that offers unique designs at fair prices. It was this reputation that led Candice Jones to apply for a position at the company. She was hired by the company as a Designer I right out of college five years ago.When Ms. Jones was hired she signed an employment agreement that stated, in part: Candice Jones shall not divulge or communicate to any person (other than those whose province it is to know the same or with proper authority) any of the trade secrets or other confidential information of Harper, Miller, & Associates, Inc., its subsidiaries and/or affiliated companies which she may (whether heretofore or hereafter) have received or obtained during the course of this Agreement with Harper, Miller, & Associates, Inc. This restriction shall continue to apply after the termination of this Agreement without limit in point of time but shall cease to apply to information or knowledge which may come into the public domain. Further, Ms. Jones recognizes and agrees that certain messages and materials simply must not be sent or accessed on company equipment or through company systems, these include materials accessed for personal gain. …" @default.
