It's Time to Stop Software and Internet Piracy

A MEDIA PARTNERS release

Languages Available: English

Length: 14:00

IS YOUR COMPANY LEGAL?

Most companies are not. It's estimated that 95% of all businesses have some illegal software on their computers. Worldwide piracy is an 11 billion dollar a year problem.

IS YOUR COMPANY AT RISK? Most companies are. The software industry has become very aggressive in its efforts to curb piracy. Every month piracy hotlines and websites collect 10,000 tips of illegal software use. Every lead is followed.

ARE THE CONSEQUENCES COSTLY? Very. Last year over 100 million dollars in fines were assessed in the US alone. Settlements of over $500,000 are common. Civil and criminal charges resulting in jail time can accompany fines. There is also the cost of business disruption, the effects of negative publicity, and the cost of becoming compliant.

The It's Time to STOP: Software & Internet Piracy training video clearly covers what the law does and does not allow in the area of software and internet copyrighted material. The accompanying management packet explains how to get legal and stay legal.

    It includes:
  • compliance pamphlets
  • sample policy forms
  • a software audit disk
  • a complete directory of resources

Purchase Package Includes

  • 1 It's Time to Stop Software and Internet Piracy video
  • 1 Management Compliance Package

This is a surprisingly good film. When I considered the title I anticipated a dry offering of federal law mixed in with the occasional verbal hand slap. What I got was a quality film that sustained my attention throughout and taught me several things about copyright law. It truly is an eye-opening film that will make your top-level managers think long and hard about company procedure, while providing the knowledge your employees need so you can get your company on the road to compliance.

    PROS
  • This film is hard-hitting and informative without being patronizing or moralistic.
  • The business vignette and expert insight make the threat of investigation feel real.
    CONS
  • There isn't enough guidance about what to do after showing employees the film.
