Why Control P2P or URL Access?
The most commonly shared files on P2P networks are copyrighted audio, video and software. Content owners have taken aggressive legal action toward illegal sharing. If your network users download or share copyrighted material, they are likely in violation of the law, and your staff may be burdened with assisting legal actions. The CopySense Appliance filters copyrighted P2P content by sensing an electronic fingerprint unique to the content itself, which is very similar to the way virus filters operate. Artists and publishers have registered over 6 million works they want protected in the CopySense database. An automatic update service keeps your CopySense Appliance current with new protected content registries as well as up to date with control measures for the latest P2P client software developments.
