Design of a Reliable Copyright Management System Based on Blockchain

Abstract

Although data exchange and transparency are encouraged by the Internet, digital information is not protected by it. It has become challenging to publish the Digital Rights Management system in today’s digital environment that can be regarded as well-protected. The value of digital work that is quickly accessible in open-source settings will eventually be zero to the creator. Nonetheless, anyone can download and make copies of content because it is available online. Since the value of data is typically based on how difficult it is to access, the worth of online content gradually declines.It may serve as a good alternative to the aforementioned issues. In this paper, we suggest a blockchain-based approach for a DCM system. In order to keep information transparent and secure, we store thedetails of copyright transactions on the blockchain. Smart Contact replaces the requirement for centralised servers to validate identities and issue licences by ensuring the validity of copyright transactions and issuing licences automatically. The possibility for using blockchain based to address the issue of managing digital copyright. This paper outlines a complete digital copyright management system (DCMS) centred on a public blockchain.
