A lawsuit has been filed in Utah federal court by Human Interest against Guidewire, featuring accusations of corporate espionage.
“We are going to tear apart HI. It’s going to be the easiest thing to do.”
According to the complaint, the Sterri brothers, Brandon and Brian, were still employed by Human Interest while allegedly planning to steal confidential data, with their brother Eirik working for the competition, Guideline.
The lawsuit claims that the Sterri brothers had access to Human Interest's confidential data despite being "limited to authorized personnel" and having agreed "to protect confidential data".
