Short answer: No - there is no standard for DRM, so no standard way to check.

Detecting Images with Digital Rights

2004-02-27 Thread John Blayter
Does anyone know of a product or service that checks an image to see if it
is protected by Digital Rights? We have developed a very robust CMS product
but want to limit our liability if one of our users uploads an image to the
system that is an Rights Managed image.

John,

While there is nothing that is 100% foolproof, our colleuges(used very lightly)
in the Adult Website industry and news industry can provide us with the following 
strategies.

1) Place the copyright information and the website within the graphic/Flash/Video. Make 
the information visable within the picture itself (see cnn.com for a good 
example of what they do to AP photos). Use Alt tags/ metadate (for video) to emphisize that point.
2) Have a strong terms and conditions section on your site

There are quite a few (heated) discussions out there and even a few products out there
cliaming to have the silver bullet of allowing 100% image protection. However, 
with enough skill (key caveat) any file format, including Flash and Video can be pulled.

I not worried about people coping images that belong to our clients. I am 
more concenred about our clients uploading protected images to our system
and we are then dragged into a lawsuit because of our clients actions. I am
looking for some sort of service that reads for known digital watermarks that 
are not visable when you view the image.

Thanks

John
