  • The prominence of IoTs (Internet of Things) and exponential advancement of computer networks has resulted in massive essential applications. Recognizing various cyber-attacks or anomalies in networks and establishing effective intrusion recognition systems are becoming increasingly vital to current security. MLTs (Machine Learning Techniques) can be developed for such data-driven intelligent recognition systems. Researchers have employed a TFDNNs (Tensor Flow Deep Neural Networks) and DCNNs (Deep Convolution Neural Networks) to recognize pirated software and malwares efficiently. However, tuning the amount of neurons in multiple layers with activation functions leads to learning error rates, degrading classifier's reliability. HTFDNNs ( Hybrid tensor flow DNNs) and MRNs (Modified Residual Networks) or Resnet CNNs were presented to recognize software piracy and malwares. This study proposes HTFDNNs to identify stolen software starting with plagiarized source codes. This work uses Tokens and weights for filtering noises while focusing on token's for identifying source code thefts. DLTs (Deep learning techniques) are then used to detect plagiarized sources. Data from Google Code Jam is used for finding software piracy. MRNs visualize colour images for identifying harms in networks using IoTs. Malware samples of Maling dataset is used for tests in this work.

  • As the business has been highly informatized, many companies has bought the software for their works. There are two types of software license. One is a site license and the other is a user license. This paper is focused on the user license. User license has the number of the right to use software. So, software managers always need to know the number of licenses in use and should limit the number of software license in use. If someone in the company use a software without license, he will be treated as a piracy. In that case, the company should pay for the settlement cost for the exceeding license use. In this paper, we suggest the model how we can limit the installation of the software within the number of licenses by license management system.

  • This paper presents the software system that protects illegal installation and use of the commercial software. The server computer in this system stores the compressed versions for all software, while client computers install all software by downloading them from the server. Also the client computers periodically report to the server whether they have illegally installed software. This system introduces authentication and encryption/decryption using the session key under Windows Operating System to prevent interception of the software package from outside world and malicious modification of the transfer message between the server and the client. The proposed system in this Paper has several advantages such as providing real-time control of license and easy maintenance of the software as well as protecting illegal use of the software.

  • Proliferation of high performance internet infrastructures finally allows their users download a single copy of regular movie just within in a couple of seconds. Ease of accesses to the software for downloading consequently leads them insensitive to the ethics or legitimacy of their conduct. Thus, strong legal action is enforced for piracy over nationally through strengthen the copyright law. We in this paper conducted a survey to see whether netizens prefer to download just for the matter of their convenience. Whilst the level of awareness is addressed even in a far-fetched manner in the area of music piracy and computer software piracy, the case of movie is much different in that we even fail to find any survey that has been made for movie piracy. The survey has been made by devising questionnaires for netizens and it was posted web WorldSurvey, which is the most prominent online survey site in Korea. To our surprise, 9 out of 10 respondents expressed they actually resort to illegal downloading for the reason of convenience. We realized one more surprise. More than 95% of netizens conspicuously aware of their downloading behaviors are mischievous and illegal without reservation.

  • It is very important to protect digital copyright such as computer software, digital contents, and others because national power is influenced at present and in the future. This paper deals with the trend of domestic and foreign researches related to digital copyright and the comparative analysis of software tools fur being a systematic judge of the piracy. This paper focuses on the foreign trend of judge business based on JISC and the domestic movement. It also comparatively analyses software tools to judge natural language or program piracy.

  • Nigeria Copyright Commission is saddled with the responsibility of ensuring adherence to the copyright law in Nigeria. However, it has been observed in the last decade that copyright right issue is still rampant in Nigeria. Therefore, this study analyzed cases that the Commission in involved in between years 2008 to 2018. The study adopted citation analysis. The study collected data from three selected law reports, which include Intellectual Property Law Reports, Nigerian Weekly Law Reports and Nigeria Law Intellectual Property Watch. It was found that Nigerian Law Intellectual Property Watch has the highest number of reports of cases involving Nigerian Copyright Commission while none was reported by Nigerian Weekly Law Reports. It was also found that most of the cases handled by the Commission were on copyright infringement. The study concludes that Nigerian Copyright Commission has been paying credible attention to issue that surrounds software infringement but there has been little attention paid to book piracy. Moreover, it was established that the poor attention given to book piracy may entrench the publication of pirated copy and would subsequently lead to poor library service provision at the long run.

  • The illegal copy of Windows software is one of the problems, because Windows is the most popular operating system in the country. The illegal copy can be infringe a software copyright, and software birthmark is one of solutions which is protecting software copyright. Software birthmark is a technique to distinguish software piracy using feature information from software. The type of software birthmark can be differentiated between static birthmark and dynamic birthmark through an extraction method. Static birthmark and dynamic birthmark have strengths and weaknesses. In this paper, we propose similarity measurement technique using dynamic birthmark based on API, and we explain extraction process of dynamic birthmark. In addition, we have verified that the proposed similarity measurement technique meet resilience and credibility through experiment. Furthermore, we saw that proposed measurement technique better than existing measurement technique.

  • As smartphones become widespread, numerous applications are developed and social issues related to software copyright are emerging. Software watermarking is digital watermarking technology applied to software and is a technology that can be used to recognize copyright owners. Generally, Java language is used to develop applications on the Android environment. The Java is an object-oriented language that supports method overloading and overriding. In this paper, we propose and implement a method generation based watermarking technique. As a result of evaluating the overhead due to the watermark, it was confirmed that the increase of the executable file size and the decrease of the execution speed are not large. Using the watermarking technique proposed in this paper, it is expected that copyright information can be verified when illegal copying is suspected or actual program is stolen, and piracy attempts will be prevented in advance.

  • Most current systems have ignored security vulnerability concerned with boot firmware. It is highly likely that boot firmware may cause serious system errors, such as hardware manipulations by malicious programs or code, the operating system corruption caused by malicious code and software piracy under a condition of no consideration of security mechanism because boot firmware has an authority over external devices as well as hardware controls. This paper proposed a structural security mechanism based on software equipped with encrypted bootstrap patterns different from pre-existing bootstrap methods in terms of securely loading an operating system, searching for malicious codes and preventing software piracy so as to provide reliability of boot firmware. Moreover, through experiments, it proved its superiority in detection capability and overhead ranging between 1.5 % ~ 3 % lower than other software security mechanisms.
