Books & Software

Solution

The latest of our content protection solutions, this has been designed to address the piracy problem from both – the demand and the supply side.

Software

Research shows that pirated copies of exclusive, and expensive, software programs are used by significantly large organizations. Thus causing immense loss of revenue to the software publisher.

By targeting the demand side of piracy, we help global software giants identify the potential customers and thus maximize sales.

MediaScan listens has the ability to log traffic on major P2Pnetworks to identify the IP addresses of all users on it. It also captures the amount of data send and received by each.

These IP addresses can then be used by MediaScan to identify the geo-locations and ISPs corresponding to each of these ISPs.

Books

With the advent of ebook readers and smartphones, piracy of books has reached a new level. A book which has taken immense efforts, from the author and the publisher, to get a launch in the market can easily be found on popular pirate websites. Thus denying the rightful – the author and the publisher – their fair share of the revenues.

In a project, our key focus is to identify all forms of pirated content, with respect to a particular work of literature, whether it is a zipped file, a torrent, a pdf or text on an html page.
