Among the most profitable modern businesses on the internet today are media and content providers, and the biggest threat to their profits is from piracy of their copywritten products. Companies, especially, in the entertainment, software, and publishing industries continue to lose profits from the proliferation of pirated content being available on a vast number of sites illegally. HCL, a leading global IT service companyhas now tapped its proprietary skills and tools to develop a software solution that seeks out and protects against illegal hosting or linking of sold material.
CyberScan brings online copyright infringement from a revenue loss into an automated evidence collector for direct action, and it uses the same stealth-like methods as the criminals do to identify and protect against illegal postings or links to “hacked” material. CyberScan provides an innovative and highly effective online copyright infringement detection service to help businesses reduce profit loss. Its state-of-the-art software uses web crawling, tracking and indexing, distributed agent "sniffers", and IP masking to identify, monitor, and report infringed content in a rapid but undetectable manner. It even bypasses the typical methods piracy sites use to hide from or fight off such detection. CyberScan employs its special technical methods automatically, reducing the cost of manually finding and tracking infringement or compliance.
Infringement of any IP or copywritten content that can be sold and shared digitally - movies, pictures, audio files, eBooks, TV shows, documents, and software - can now be identified and addressed with CyberScan. Your business can finally fight online piracy of your content in an effective manner. CyberScan from HCL is a powerful tool and a major benefit for any business combating copyright infringement.
Excerpts from the Paper
Trying to stop online piracy and illegal distribution of content on the internet is nothing new. Like hiring security guards for a store front, combating online theft can be both costly and have unique challenges. Further, the criminal sites respond to business attempts to find and remove illegitimate and illegal content with increasing technical sophistication. Not only must the sites hosting pirated material be identified, but the sites that link to their hacked content. HCL CyberScan can help any business protect their key intellectual property. As online piracy continues to grow exponentially, companies must remain vigilant with technology to minimize copyright infringement and its resulting profit loss. Our unique solution is a new and effective way to combat online piracy, IP theft and illegal distribution by using automation and the latest internet/cloud technologies.
