Do you know where your trade secrets are?

There should be no over-ruling this ...

So, we need someone to develop a "write-once" filesystem? Although I suppose even that fs could be subverted, given suitable system privileges, by installing a hacked rw version of the same and mounting (and then altering) the backups filesystem with it.

OK, so all (suitably paranoid) backups should only be to write-once media, then?
