Abstract The paper considers two main applications of stegosystems: as a digital watermark, for copyright protection, and as a method for secretly transmitting information through an acoustic environment. A stegosystem is studied theoretically and experimentally when information is transmitted over different distances in an acoustic medium in the presence of extraneous noise. Nowadays great attention is paid to the protection of intellectual property. Illegal distribution of media content, including copies of musical compositions, is widespread and reaches unprecedented proportions. Protecting audio files from unauthorized copying and using becomes increasingly important. Digital watermarks are a promising method for solving this problem. The purpose of the article is to develop an effective method for protecting audio files from illegal use by embedding a digital watermark (DW). After detection the illegal distribution of their product, the copyright holder will be able to track the presence of the digital watermark and apply to the court for damages.

Copyright is one of the Intellectual Property Rights components and should be paid attention to. Even more in technology era that developing, copyright protection needed to be enhanced, so that the right of creator, Copyright holder or owner of relevant rights can be protected and urge people to create. Indirectly, good and healthy business climate could be fostered.  Not all people have skill to create, that is why those people who have skill to create must be protected and even awarded, hoping that people urged to create. One of the creations that protected are song and music. In creating song or music, creator involve recording producer, music director or arranger. Regarding the creation, creator holds moral and economy rights, while parties involved hold the relevant rights to it. Collective Management Agency is an agency that help creator or relevant rights owner in managing and distributing the creation which is song or music that being commercialized. Yet the creator must be the member of the agency beforehand. Commercialization of a song or music by user can rise problem. Protection to the song or music is for the whole thing, including lyric, notation, arrangement and song title. The utilization of a song or music should be still protecting the parties that hold the copyright and the relevant right to it.

Introduction. The use of technical means for copyright protection is regulated not only in Russian legislation, but also in foreign and international law. It means that the international concept of intellectual property protection could be perceived differently by foreign jurisdictions, which, in turn, is of special scientific interest. The foundations of legal regulation are laid down in international treaties, which in the intellectual property law are tools that contain substantive rules of law. The provisions of such treaties are implemented in the national (supranational) legislation, and, therefore, become part of them and subject to additions.. The article is devoted to the study of international legal regulation of the use of technical means for copyright protection.Materials and methods. The methodological basis of the research consists of the following general scientific and special methods of cognition of legal phenomena and processes: dialectical, formal-legal, comparative-legal, formal-logical, structural-functional.Results of the study. The authors found that attempts to protect copyright using technology available at every stage of history were undertaken by individual countries, beginning from the second half of the 19th century. However technical means of protection received legal regulation at the international level relatively recently, the prerequisite for that was the rapid development of digital information technologies. Analysis of international legal norms in the field of legal regulation of technical means of copyright protection has shown that at present international legal regulation is of a general nature, providing each of the states at the national level with ample opportunities for legal concretization of gen-eral norms. However, recently the Internet treaties of WIPO recognized for the first time not only the advisability of the use of technical means of protection, but also the obligation prohibiting circumvention of such protection technologies, and therefore national legislations should contain provisions regulating the circumvention of such protection technologies.Discussion and Conclusions. The introduction of international law with regard to the use of the protection technologies, despite their general and abstract nature, has given a serious impetus to the establishment of legal regulation of this institution at the national level. At the same time, the rules governing the use of the protection technologies in the near future will require greater unification and concretization due to the rapid development of digital information technologies, blurring the borders between states in terms of disseminating the results of intellectual activity, and also in order to avoid a multiplicity of interpretation of law and to ensure effective legal regulation and protection of copyright.

This article aims at describing the role of Yayasan Karya Cipta Indonesia (YKCI) in copyright protection in Indonesia and the mechanism of royalty payment on Indonesian songs to the YKCI. The approach used in this study is normative approach as this study is conducted on secondary, primary, and tertiary legal materials, such as books, legal journals, and expert (secondary data) research results; its main legislation is Law no. 19 of 2002 on Copyright (primary data); English and Indonesia dictionaries and tertiary law which is the result of library research, supported by legal materials in the form of documents from field research results. From the collected legal materials, analysis in the method of the qualitative descriptive was conducted. The results indicated that YKCI's role as an administrator body in copyright protection is to collect royalties from parties that use songs or music commercially and help dispute resolution between creators, users or record producers of songs or music creations. Furthermore, the mechanism of royalty payments to YKCI shall be initiated by the authorization of YKCI by the creator or the copyright holder of the song, so on the basis of such power of attorney, YKCI exercises the collection or withdrawal of royalties by a percentage mechanism from the dealer's selling price through a permit saving per song at a rate for recording into a cassette, CD, VCD, and other media. Law Number 19 of 2002 on Copyright should be accompanied by the willingness and ability of the apparatus in enforcing it so that what to be achieved with the Act can be obtained. In addition, it is recommended that the government immediately issue provisions on the roles, duties and functions of the Copyright Council as well as the organic rules that explain the authority of YKCI which may be the appointment of the Director-General of Intellectual Property Rights (IPR) as endorsement of a collective society in order to attract royalties. The government also needs to make a standard contract of licensing agreement between the Copyright of Songs and Music in the event of announcement. In addition, YKCI also needs to be open including to the power of attorney (Creator of the song) so that the Creator can know the frequency of their song announcement and the large royalty that must be obtained.

Recently, programming theft has been a serious issue for programming ventures and extremely huge costs were required to secure their applications. As per Business Software Alliance, the worldwide programming theft rate in 2013 was 43% and the business estimation of unlicensed programming establishments was $62.7 billion, which brought about a large loss in income and a number positions in programming organisations. This paper will exhibit that ‘programming robbery insurance framework’ is mostly used to secure the theft of the framework. Presently, a progressive number of clients download the product without having the consent of the product’s proprietor since the product has the item key which can be located/used by an obscure individual to utilise that product. Our methodology will utilise ‘Macintosh-based confirmation’ and create an item key, which checks or compares the item key against a unique MAC address on each machine. Keywords: Copyright protection, software piracy prevention, identification, authentication, intellectual property protection, diversity, tailored updates.

Sharing, disseminating, and presenting data in digital format is not just a fad, but it is becoming part of our life. Without careful planning, digitized resources could easily be misused, especially those that are shared across the Internet. Examples of such misuse include use without the owner’s permission, and modification of a digitized resource to fake ownership. One way to prevent such behaviors is to employ some form of copyright protection technique, such as digital watermarks. Digital watermarks refer to the data embedded into a digital source (e.g., images, text, audio, or video recording). They are similar to watermarks in printed materials as a message inserted into the host media typically becomes an integral part of the media. Apart from traditional watermarks in printed forms, digital watermarks may also be invisible, may be in the forms other than graphics, and may be digitally removed.

With the development of globalization, intangible cultural heritage (ICH) has come under increasing threat, making the safeguarding of ICH a crucial task for the governments and peoples of the world. This paper examines China’s current state of intellectual property (IPR) protection for ICH and proposes that ICH be placed under China’s legislative protection as intellectual property. Due to the immense diversity and complexity of ICH and the difficulty in reconciling various interests involved, the existing IPR protection mode faces many obstacles in practice. We present two case studies and three sets of recommendations on improving the protection of ICH in China. The first set relies on improving copyright protection for ICH, the second set relies on improving trademark and geographical protection for ICH, and the third set relies on improving patent protection for ICH.

Watermark information is embedded in three-dimensional mesh model through three-dimensional watermarking algorithm for effective copyright protection. The widely use of three-dimensional grid model attracts more attention on the copyright protection. The digital watermark algorithm with the NURBS model based on the wavelet transform aims to get the virtual grayscale images using the control point coordinate. Then we can embed the watermark into the virtual gray image watermark. It can change the three-dimensional models into two-dimensional images. And this algorithm can enhance the operability and simplicity of the watermark embedding. Experiments show that the proposed algorithm is easy to implement, simple in principle, and the extracted watermark is clearly visible, moreover, the model does not need to be directly modified, so it has good robustness. Watermarked model does not change in the visual, it has good invisibility.

Copyright is one of the intellectual property rights whose main activity is to promote creativity and protect the ownership of the author. However, these rights are not absolute and are subject to certain restrictions.In the Berne Convention, Agreement on Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights and also WIPO Copyright Treaty embodied so-called “three-step test” allowing exceptions to copyright protection. They state that exceptions to copyright protection are admissible only in specific cases; if they comply with the rules of normal exploitation of the author's work; and do not unreasonably prejudice the legitimate rights of the author.While respecting the restrictions contained in international conventions, the Latvian Copyright Law also lays down various restrictions, when the author's work can be used without a special permit for the use of the author's work or for free, such as in the educational or research process. The free use of copyright-protected materials constitutes a restriction on the economic rights of copyright holders. These restrictions aim to strike a balance between the rights of the author and the interests of the public. Although copyright-protected works can be used in education almost everywhere in the world, restrictions on the exercise of these rights have not been clearly established.The aim of this paper is to research limits use of copyright-protected works in the educational process. Basis for this analysis will be the international and national legal framework about copyright exceptions in educational process.In the development of the research used an analytical method of scientific research, as well as a method of interpreting grammatical, teleological and historical legal norms. For the conclusions used inductive and deductive method of scientific research.

This study is concerned with one of the most burning issues of intellectual property rights, namely the notarial protection of the testator's exclusive rights. The article analyzes the Kazakh and international experience in solving this issue. In the course of the study, the authors obtained the following results: - In legal practice, the non-acceptance of inheritance and refusal to inherit exclusive rights have their specific features; - It is proposed to supplement the existing civil legislation on the protection of the testator's copyrights. ‘Kazakhstan Authors' Society’ conducts its activities in the territory of the Republic of Kazakhstan. Its main function is to manage the property rights of authors. This management includes the issuance of permits to use deliverables on behalf of authors, as well as the collection, distribution and payment of royalties. It has been established that a notary has the right to apply to ‘Kazakhstan Authors' Society’ to determine one's authorship. The authors have revealed that the current Kazakh legislation does not state the creation time of some deliverable and does not provide for the notarial certification of a web page (in case of copyright infringement). Thus, a notary takes measures to protect the intellectual property rights owned by the copyright holder that might become the subject of succession.
