Summary/Abstract: The resources which guarantee gaining competitive advantage should be under protection in con-temporary enterprises. The protection concerns not only external hazards and but also internal, accidental and intentional ones. In order to elaborate suitable knowledge protection in an enterprise, it is essential to identify its extent, which includes assessment of acceptable risk. Due to formaliza-tion of procedures in an enterprise, knowledge and skills of its employees are registered and become its property. High-technology enterprises, also known as high-tech, produce independently and make an intensive use of their own unique knowledge in various fields, bringing innovative solu-tions, such as new generations of products or applied manufacturing technologies, onto the market. Taking this aspect into consideration, independently produced and unique knowledge should be under special protection. The purpose of this article is to identify chosen manners of knowledge protection in an enterprise operating in a high-tech sector, which is an “engine” of economic growth.
