NFT copyright and security: Safeguarding digital assets in the era of Web3

Numerous high-profile cases have highlighted the vulnerabilities surrounding  NFT copyright content and the urgent need for robust and scalable security measures. For example, pirates gain unauthorized access to the original content and distribute it freely or sell it without the creator’s consent. 

With a more thorough understanding of the current state of NFT security and potential solutions, market participants can better understand their options as they navigate the evolving landscape of digital assets while safeguarding the interests of creators and collectors alike.

The distribution of NFT content poses additional challenges. Once access to content associated with an NFT is granted, typically it can be copied, shared, and redistributed without any restrictions. So, even legitimate distribution of NFT content can expose creators and rights owners to the risk of piracy. To truly protect artists’ copyrighted work and maintain content rights to preserve the long-term value of NFTs, it is crucial to develop robust security measures that extend beyond the blockchain and address the limitations inherent in current content protection solutions.
