A company wants to prevent proprietary and confidential company information from being shared to outsiders. Which of the following would this best describe?

An NDA (Non-Disclosure Agreement) is a legally binding contract that establishes a confidential relationship between two or more parties. It ensures that sensitive information shared between the parties will not be disclosed to unauthorized individuals or entities. This directly addresses the company's need to prevent proprietary and confidential information from being shared externally. MOA (Memorandum of Agreement) is a cooperative agreement between two or more parties that outlines an intended common line of action, but is not legally binding in the same way an NDA is regarding confidentiality. SLA (Service Level Agreement) defines the level of service expected from a vendor, focusing on performance metrics rather than information secrecy. MSA (Master Service Agreement) is a contract that outlines the terms that will govern future agreements or transactions between two parties, providing a framework but not specifically addressing confidentiality in the way an NDA does.
