To me, "poner en evidencia" also has the connotation of embarrassing the person you are doing this to. For example:
Ella me puso en evidencia en frente de todos. She embarrassed me in front of everyone (by sharing some secret about me). So here's my translation: poner en evidencia a alguien = to divulge a piece of detrimental information about someone with the intent of embarrassing them
