Cognizant Technology Solutions has alleged that Infosys Ltd was "caught red-handed" stealing the trade secrets of its healthcare software TriZetto, upping the ante against India's No. 2 IT services firm in a US lawsuit.
Cognizant's reply, made in a Dallas court filing on 7 February, comes a little more than a month after Infosys countersued Cognizant, stating its chief executive officer Ravi Kumar S. had delayed the rollout of Infosys's own healthcare software product while he was a president at Infosys and negotiating for a job with Cognizant.
Infosys veteran Ravi Kumar had quit in October 2022, and joined Cognizant as CEO in January 2023. The dispute flared in August 2024 when Cognizant alleged that Infosys had stolen its trade secrets from TriZetto. Infosys rejected the allegation in a 9 January filing, adding information about Cognizant's healthcare solutions were public. It has also asked the Dallas court to compel Cognizant to properly identify the trade secrets in question.
In its court response, Cognizant said, "Infosys was caught red-handed misappropriating TriZetto trade secrets that Infosys originally had access to through non-disclosure and Cognizant's reply.
