ROCHESTER, NY -- 11/29/2004 -- IP.com, the world’s leader in defensive publishing for prior art and e-document legal safeguarding today announced the opening of the IP.com Creative Registry.

Individual writers and inventors have a universal problem: proving what they created and when they created it. The IP.com Creative Registry solves this problem head on. The IP.com Creative Registry allows users to upload electronic copies of their work for safekeeping. More importantly, the uploaded files are legally safeguarded using IP.com’s bulletproof safeguarding process that enables the owner of the document to prove both the date and the content of their work at any point in the future.

Thomas Colson, CEO of IP.com said, “Unlike other offerings in this area, the Creative Registry notarization never expires. Regardless of whether our clients store their work with us, our Creative Registry will enable them to unequivocally prove the date and content of their work at any point in the future.” Tom continued, “Since conflicts and legal challenges typically occur years after an artistic work or invention is created, it is important that the owner have permanent proof of their work. The IP.com Creative Registry provides exactly that.”

Users can access the Creative Registry at www.ip.com/cr where they can identify and upload a file and make easy payment via a credit card. IP.com creates a digital fingerprint of the file and publishes the fingerprint into the public domain (digital fingerprints cannot be reverse engineered to determine record content so customers can be assured that their content is never exposed to others). As an added convenience, IP.com also stores the file for the customer for 15 years. In addition, the client can extend protection indefinitely as long as they keep a copy of their work.

IP.com uses the same digital fingerprinting and publishing technology contained in its industrial strength solutions used by some of the world’s largest and most innovative companies for defensive publishing and legal safeguarding of their internal e-documents.
