Microsoft accuses a former manager of taking hundreds of megabytes of confidential company material when he left the firm for a new position at CRM rival Salesforce.com. Microsoft sued Matt Miszewski for violating non-compete and confidentiality agreements when he accepted a job as a senior vice president with CRM.com last month. A Washington state court issued a temporary restraining order blocking him from working at Salesforce., Microsoft says. The firm says the documents on his computer were on Microsoft’s business plans related to Microsoft’s 2011 strategies for its government group and its cloud computing products and services.
