Non Disclosure Agreement

I have another issue raised today when drafting out Non Disclosure Agreement. I hope you can help with this! What is the best practice duration of confidentiality agreement? if we say it is for particular number of years, for some highly sensitive information it may not be enough or if its to expire with the contract that's will not help also to protect the information.. I'm sure you will have a better idea on this and can help me come up with the best.

Answer: Most frequently, the duration used for NDAs is 2, 3, and 5 years, but you can define a different period based on a risk assessment (a NDA can even last forever), and you do not have to define one single period for all your information. But you have to notice that the longer is the period, the greater is the cost involved.
