The answer is Patent
Trade secrets do not require registration with the federal government. They are protected through confidentiality agreements and other measures to keep the information secret.
Copyright protection is automatic upon the creation of a work and does not require registration, although registration with the U.S. Copyright Office can provide additional legal benefits.
Patents require registration with the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO). This process involves a formal application and examination to ensure the invention meets the necessary criteria for patentability.
While trademarks can be protected under common law without registration, federal registration with the USPTO provides additional legal benefits and protections.
The answer is State Law
Executive orders are directives issued by the President of the United States and do not govern trade secrets.
Trade secrets are primarily governed by state law, specifically under the Uniform Trade Secrets Act (UTSA), which has been adopted by most states.
Federal agencies do not govern trade secrets directly, although they may be involved in enforcement actions related to trade secret theft.
While there are federal laws such as the Defend Trade Secrets Act (DTSA) that provide a federal cause of action for trade secret misappropriation, the primary governance of trade secrets is under state law.
