you have to know at least some level of programming, and outsource hard part of it to other coders. depending on how complex your system is, you may be able to breakdown the system into a lot of small pieces. that way, your system may be safe. but in the end, you need to know the programming to...

i doubt this would work if the system is too much profitable. op can trust the firm, but not the employee in the firm. anyway, if one of the employees steals the code, or the idea and recodes the system in his own way, and trades it in the basement, who can prove or know the system is stolen?
