Answer

The answer is Patent

Explanation
Option 1: Trade Secret

Trade secrets do not require registration with the federal government. They are protected through confidentiality agreements and other measures to keep the information secret.

Option 2: Copyright

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.

Option 3: Patent

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.

Option 4: Trademark

While trademarks can be protected under common law without registration, federal registration with the USPTO provides additional legal benefits and protections.

Answer

The answer is State Law

Explanation
Option 1: Executive Orders

Executive orders are directives issued by the President of the United States and do not govern trade secrets.

Option 2: State Law

Trade secrets are primarily governed by state law, specifically under the Uniform Trade Secrets Act (UTSA), which has been adopted by most states.

Option 3: Federal Agencies

Federal agencies do not govern trade secrets directly, although they may be involved in enforcement actions related to trade secret theft.

Option 4: Federal Law

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.
