| Revolutionizing Software Compliance with Intelligence |
 Software Intelligence is the collection of data on exactly how your intellectual property is being used and misused. Today's leading companies in the software industry are using Software Intelligence to stop piracy, protect their paying customers, boost revenue, and increase shareholder value.
Balanced with licensing and legal action, leaders in the software industry are deploying the proven strategy of Software Intelligence to protect their applications. They are giving their software compliance teams actionable intelligence on exactly how their software is being used - and by which companies - to boost top line revenue as much as 10 percent, without sacrificing their paying customers' user experience.

V.i. Labs Data Service

The V.i. Labs Data Service (VDS), an extension to CodeArmor Intelligence, accelerates the process for customers by automatically matching license infringement records with non-compliant organizations. VDS combines business information from Data.com, Whois domain registries, IP geo-location databases and federated organizational databases of non-compliant organizations from current V.i. Labs deployments to identify infringing organizations' names and addresses. The VDS is supported by V.i. Labs analysts who are responsible for monitoring and qualifying the non-compliant organizations database, responding to data challenges and ensuring a constantly fresh service.

eWeek: Nine Anti-Piracy Ideas That Just Won't Work
|
 Congress is trying control the problem of pirate software with legislation such as the "Stop Online Piracy Act" currently being reviewed in a House committee. The Senate has already voted to enact "Protect IP Act."
"Trying to stop piracy by adding new tools to disable access to the piracy channels is a futile strategy for most software vendors," Vic DeMarines, vice president of Product Strategy at V.i. Labs, told eWEEK. These types of tactics would just create "new methods and approaches" for sharing pirated content, such as cyber-locker service providers, DeMarines said. Software vendors should track the adoption of unlicensed software, much in the same way they track licensed versions, and implement software amnesty programs. These compliance programs would allow organizations to self-report their transgressions and move toward legitimate software.
