RESEARCH TRIANGLE PARK – Cisco Systems is suing three former exmployees described as “senior” level, alleging they stole confidential files and “defected to a competitor,” according to Bloomberg News.
The three left Cisco (Nasdaq: CSCO) earlier this year.
The suit did not identify the company but notes it is “in the IP telephony, headset, video, and collaboration space,” Bloomberg added.
“LinkedIn profiles for men with the same names show that all three, after long stints at Cisco, now work at San Jose-based Poly, a developer of video, voice and content collaboration and communication technology,” Bloomberg says.
The firm declined comment, the new service said.
Cisco has a major presence in Research Triangle Park.
