    hello I supervise a team for developing software in c# and I always worry some of my members may steal the code to modify part of them and then to sell them as software components or as a complete program. What measures could I take to prevent this ? We develop in a software components approach to build up a large software.

      I'd recommend hiring people you trust. Either that, or don't allow any sort of internet access, and body/cavity search people every day for memory keys/floppy discs/etc. Christian I have several lifelong friends that are New Yorkers but I have always gravitated toward the weirdo's. - Richard Stringer

        There is no way your going to prevent this. Even if you disable all the drives on each members computer, remove any Internet access these guys have, and confiscate all flash drives, I've can still think of about a half-dozen methods of getting the source files off of your network.

          Oh, and just a FYI... cross-posting is considered rude.
