What are the Basics of Intellectual Property?
Intellectual property (IP) law covers patent, copyright, trademark, trade dress, trade secret, and other related intangible assets rights. IP law protects owners of those assets from improper third-party infringement of those rights for their own financial gain.
Basically, IP law involves:
• identification of assets that should be protected;
• protection through formal registration and/or internal processes;
• maintenance of the rights through proper use, filings, enforcement, and/or internal processes; and
• guarding against infringement by third parties through enforcement programs, consumer education, adequate agreements, and litigation, when necessary.
