Multifaceted and complex:
● Securing trade secrets● Claiming copyrights● Proving prior use● Make defensive disclosures● Confidentiality agreements● Technology licenses● ...
Risks: product delays, wasting R&D money, legal costs, going out of business, litigations, …
Bernstein approach to IP management
The blockchain allows companies to create solid foundations to neutralize these risks.
At low effort and low cost.

Three use cases for blockchain certificates

A public blockchain is the universal public registry that](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022071217/604cd90b80157e09e16f9b12/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)

Use case
Enhanced confidentiality agreementsThe NDA dilemma: ● broad ⇒ unenforceable ● specific ⇒ complex, discloses trade secrets
Blockchain enhanced NDA: ● simple, strong, private
![Page 13: Blockchain certificates for securing intellectual property ...for securing intellectual property assets Moscow, 16.04.2018. A public blockchain is the universal public registry that](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022071217/604cd90b80157e09e16f9b12/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Use case
Securing 3D modelsCopyright claims: the traditional way
● Slow and inconvenient● Reveal trade secrets
Copyright claims: the blockchain way
● No need to redact files● Perfect confidentiality
3D model redacted 3D model

● Expensive● Limited geographies
● Strong ownership claim● Convenient, quick, global.
3D Printing May Lead to Increased Copyright Litigation
Mar 13, 2017
Consistent enforcement and statutory damages may dissuade infringers (anyone with a 3D printer). But strong copyright claims are required.

Use case
Better defensive publishingDefensive publishing is getting more popular, but it is not trivial neither cheap to execute in a robust and indisputable way.
In-house● publication date can be challenged● public availability is hard to prove
Commercial services● expensive● limited visibility, for paid access
Blockchain registration + IPFS publishing● robust and indisputable timestamp● proven public availability● optionally anonymous● convenient and inexpensive● always secures the largest perimeter● not just for documents (datasets, visuals, ...)● freely available to anyone
