vocational secret
trade is not 'yrke', it's 'handel'
yrke='profession', 'vocation'
the adjective 'professional' is not to be used as it has so many connotations, some negative, which the previous answerer rightly sensed

Hallo,
I took a look at how the German -> English translation would be.
German: Berufsgeheimnis = English: professional secret
"Berufsgeheimnis" is yrkeshemmelighet in Norwegian
But trade secrets also sounds okay.....
difficult without the content...
Good luck !
Greetings from Tone
