Brian Samson explains why hiring overseas talent doesn't have to put your IP at risk. NDAs, contracts, and proper governance protect international hires just as well as remote domestic employees, and education matters more than location.

I do see where people do use a lot of like open source shared development and then it just had a potential exposure of IP theft. And I think the big concern, not necessarily warranted or unwarranted, is I get asked a lot of time about IP protection for somebody that's international and usually it's covered by good governance of NDAs, contracts, whatnot, that really it shouldn't make it any more risky than if somebody was working remotely across the state or across the United States. So I think one of the biggest questions questions or concerns I get when it comes to using talent from like Latin America. It's just kind of the protection of like the data leaks, integrity of that, just kind of having those conversations and educating that it's no more dangerous than employing somebody who's working from home.
