Protecting Your Company's Intellectual Property

Attorney Bouchoux discusses trademarks, patents, copyrights, and trade secrets. She explains how rights arise under each, what can be protected, and what procedures need to be undertaken to ensure protection. Emerging issues, such as how to obtain and protect domain names, protecting web site content from infringement, electronic publishing, downloading music from the Internet, and protection of multimedia works, are all covered in light of business trends and the current state of the law. A chapter on internal audits will help readers conduct an inventory of their intellectual property assets. Bouchoux presents the information succinctly and with a clear understanding of the practical problems encountered by those managing intellectual property. Highly recommended.
