日本企業内部資料在中國網上流傳

Last month the Yomiuri News on-line reported the following:

ソニー・日立も？中国サイトに企業内部資料多数

【北京＝栗原守】中国のインターネットサイト上に、国内外の企業の内部資料が、閲覧できる状態で大量に掲載されていることが分かった。

　日系企業も含まれていることから、日本貿易振興機構（ＪＥＴＲＯ）が、実態把握のために調査を始めた。

　中国の大手検索サイト「百度（バイドゥ）」内の一般人が投稿できるコーナーなどに、「ソニー」や「トヨタ」、「日立」「松下」などの日系と思われる企業名が記された資料が数多く掲載されている。資料は、家電製品の性能表や電気回路図、社内の研修マニュアルなどで、ＪＥＴＲＯや日系企業によると、経営に実害を与えないものが多数という。退職者や取引先に渡った内部資料が、流出するケースが多いとみられる。

　掲載された各社は、サイト運営者に削除を要請するなどの手段を講じているという。

It turned out that in an Internet site in China the internal documents of many companies in and outside the country were published in large quantities and could be perused.

     Since Japanese companies were also included, the Japan External Trade Organization (JETRO) began an investigation to grasp the actual situation.

Many data of the companies with names considered to be of Japanese origin, such as "Sony", "Toyota", "Hitachi", "Matsushita", were published in a Chinese major company search engine site the "100 times (Baidu)" which ordinary people in the street could contribute and publish. Data included a performance table of some home electronics and the electric diagram, a training manual of the company, etc. According to JETRO and the Japanese companies, it was said that most data did not cause actual harm to the management. It could be seen that in many cases it was internal documents flowing out from a retired employee or a customer.

It was said that individual company that had details published was requesting the site operator to provide the means to delete them.

It seems that it is an issue involving the copy right of documents.
