Intel creates a copyright protection system using blockchain

IT corporation Intel announced the start of work on a system for protecting copyrights for digital images. Coindesk reports that the company has already filed an application to operate with the US Patent and Trademark Office.

“Blockchain technology is used to document and verify attributes of digital content that are related to copyright protection. Such attributes may include, for example, the identifier of the content author; a timestamp indicating the date the content was created; tools to detect copying or modification of content" - reported in Intel's application.

The use of a protection system will allow the use of several types of software in order to assess the authorship of an image, even if it was taken from external sources. Once assessed, the platform creates a unique identifier for both the original content and any modified versions. In the patent application, these versions are called "shadow images."

In addition to working with images, Intel offers an expanded rights system for video content and other file types. It is worth noting here the ability to work with unfinished projects and unstructured parts.
