Annual Symposium of Dutch AIPPI at Zeist, 13 March 2013. Presentation on the status of protection for trade secrets for the 2013 Dutch AIPPI group symposium - prior to the draft EU Directive
Copyright protects original works when fixed in a tangible form. The Indian Copyright Act of 1957 governs copyright and has been amended over time. Copyright ensures minimum protections for creators and rewards creativity. Once a work is created and fixed, copyright is secured automatically. However, new technologies pose challenges for copyright owners to prevent unauthorized use online. Copyright law provides certain exclusive rights to owners, and terms and conditions as well as technology can help enforce digital copyrights.
The document summarizes key points from a presentation on privacy for tech startups. It discusses why privacy is important for startups to consider, providing practical information security controls startups can implement, and new privacy principles from the GDPR that startups should be aware of. Some highlights include:
- Privacy should be a priority from the start and can help startups win trust among users and investors.
- Practical security controls include encrypting data, patching systems, training employees, and monitoring for vulnerabilities.
- The GDPR introduces new principles like data protection by design, security of processing, breach notification requirements, data protection impact assessments, and data protection officers.
The document summarizes key points made by Carolina Rossini, International Intellectual Property Director at EFF, at a 2012 Trans-Pacific Partnership Stakeholder Forum regarding technological protection measures (TPMs) and access rights. Rossini argues that overbroad TPM laws, as seen from the US experience with the DMCA, can restrict lawful and socially beneficial uses of copyrighted works, chill scientific research, stifle technology innovation, and enable anti-competitive behavior. The TPP agreement should leave TPM policy choices to member countries and any provisions must balance copyright protections with other public interests.

To introduce the importance of legal and regulatory issues to entrepreneurs
To consider the regulatory environments of the Asia–Pacific within which a new venture must exist
To examine intellectual property protection, including copyright, patents, trademarks and domain names
To recognise the important international protection regimes for intellectual property
To critically examine the IP practices of Asia–Pacific countries
To compare the common legal forms of business organisation in the Asia–Pacific, such as sole proprietorship, partnership and corporation
To be aware of the signals that foreshadow insolvency and bankruptcy
To examine the trend for environmental regulations that will affect business entrepreneurship
This chapter has a broad remit in considering the four types of legal and regulatory challenges that entrepreneurs will face in the Asia–Pacific region. We begin with a look at the various regulatory regimes that make up ease of doing business, from starting a company to closing it down. We then examine one of the most critical aspects for entrepreneurs: how to protect your intellectual property. Equally important is to then consider under what legal form to incorporate the firm. Finally, we look at regulations concerning climate change and global warming, regulations that are becoming increasingly troublesome for entrepreneurs. In typical legalistic style, we do need to note that the Asia–Pacific region includes many different countries and the scope of this text is limited to general knowledge. For specific information on legal matters particular to a country and your venture always seek the advice of appropriately qualified professional persons knowledgeable about the jurisdiction of your operations.

It was developed by an industry-government committee to provide requirements for counterfeit parts control plans, purchasing processes, verification methods, and more. The standard establishes best practices for avoiding, detecting, responding to and mitigating counterfeit electronic parts risks. It is being adopted by several government agencies and aerospace companies to strengthen protections against counterfeits.
Electrical Testing For Counterfeit Detection - Marshalpzulueta
Electrical testing is important for detecting counterfeit electronic parts. There are different levels of electrical testing from basic DC validation to full specification testing. Basic tests may only find obviously defective parts while full testing that examines functionality over temperature is more likely to find counterfeits. Integra Technologies provides examples where they identified counterfeits that had passed less rigorous testing but failed when tested over temperature or with more comprehensive parametric testing. Proper selection of a qualified test laboratory and defining the required test methods are important to help assure counterfeits are detected.
First Line of Defense against Counterfeits - Hammondpzulueta
American Electronic Resource, Inc. provides independent distribution and counterfeit avoidance strategies. They recommend locating reputable independent distributors, auditing supplier facilities and counterfeit detection processes, increasing an organization's detection capabilities, and testing all high reliability parts from non-franchise suppliers.

Conferences and committees have been working to educate stakeholders and develop new policies. However, counterfeiters continue to innovate through techniques like re-marking parts and providing fake test reports, making detection an ongoing challenge.
Counterfeit Avoidance Through Purchasing Processes and Supplier Control - Liv...pzulueta
The document discusses observations from detecting counterfeit electronic components. It notes that inspection methods are designed to verify authentic parts, not detect counterfeits. Many counterfeits showed evidence of remarking, refurbishing, or being from multiple sources despite having identical markings. Properly detecting counterfeits requires accounting for the potential of forged markings disguising multiple part origins and adjusting inspection sampling accordingly.
Counterfeit Controls of a Franchised Distributor - Nicholspzulueta
The document summarizes Avnet Logistics' controls against counterfeit parts.

ERAI Risk Mitigation Tools to Address Today’s Complex Global Marketplace - Sn...pzulueta
ERAI is an information services organization that monitors and reports on issues in the global electronics supply chain such as counterfeit and substandard parts. The document discusses the rise in counterfeit parts incidents since 2005 and some of the root causes, such as outsourced manufacturing and e-waste. It then describes ERAI's tools and databases that allow users to search for high-risk parts, complaints, and scrub component information to mitigate risks from counterfeit or faulty parts, customers, and vendors in the complex global supply chain.
This document provides an agenda for a workshop on counterfeit electronic parts hosted by NASA and IMAPS chapters on October 1, 2009 at the Radisson Hotel at Los Angeles Airport. The morning program includes opening remarks, presentations on counterfeits and the US industrial base, counterfeiters' techniques, methods for first line of defense against counterfeits, and counterfeit controls of a franchised distributor. Breakout sessions will cover counterfeit avoidance through purchasing processes and supplier control.
