A project manager is discussing with team members sensitive project information that should not be disclosed outside of the office. Which of the following BEST describes this type of information?

Answer options

• A. Intellectual property
• B. Marketing
• C. Trade secret
• D. Top secret

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C, Trade secret, as it refers specifically to confidential business information that provides a competitive edge and is not generally known.
