Averon Complaint Alleges AT&T ‘Misappropriated’ Its Trade Secrets

Digital identity verification platform Averon entered a motion Tuesday in U.S. District Court in Wilmington, Delaware, seeking leave to file a complaint under seal alleging AT&T and mobile sign-on app ZenKey “misappropriated” Averon’s trade secrets, said court papers in docket 1:22-cv-01341. Averon’s complaint and exhibits contain “confidential and proprietary information that Averon seeks to protect,” plus the defendants’ “alleged” confidential information that Averon also seeks to protect, said the motion. AT&T and ZenKey didn’t comment Wednesday.
