    Hi Suzanne

    There's this

     https://www.wipo.int/sme/en/documents/patent_searching_fulltext.html 

    which generally appears to be covered by the other linked document, but for the sake of completeness.

    Regards

    I am posting this for a colleague located at another business unit in my company.  He is not a current PIUG member but recognizes the value of our group.  I think this topic is a valuable discussion for all of us.

    Issue: Researching the potential cybersecurity risks of using free-to-use patent search tools [e.g. GOOGLE Patents].

    sample reference: https://ipo.org/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/Free-Search-Tools-Bulletin_-20170301.pdf

    Request: Want to gather any additional known postings or peer-reviewed journal articles, and PIUG community thoughts on this concern.

    Thank you for your input.  I will share your responses with him and continue to encourage him to join PIUG.
