FSN "FSN ASIA-Six Network Launches Blockchain-Based Certified Photo Copyright Protection App"

[Asia Economy Reporter Hyunseok Yoo] Future Stream Networks, a comprehensive digital marketing group, announced on the 1st that Six Network, a subsidiary of its overseas business corporation FSN ASIA, has launched ‘SNAP,’ a blockchain-based B2C application (App) for protecting intellectual property rights of digital content.

‘SNAP’ is the first domestic image copyright protection service provided in the B2C sector based on blockchain technology. When a user takes a photo using the ‘SNAP’ app, the image is encrypted with a unique hash value and stored on the blockchain. The hash values of images registered on Ground X’s public blockchain ‘Klaytn’ are verified for duplication against existing information from the registration stage, and after data uniqueness is confirmed by all nodes (individual servers participating in the blockchain), the content registration is established.

Choi Changhyun, CEO of FSN ASIA, stated, “Through the newly introduced ‘SNAP,’ users can protect the copyrights of photos they have taken without cumbersome procedures, even if they are not intellectual property experts.” He added, “We will continue to increase efficient use cases in various fields such as preventing forgery of important document images and photo theft commonly occurring in e-commerce, striving to make blockchain technology more naturally integrated into everyday life.”

Six Network has been working to expand the use of blockchain technology by conducting the blockchain technology-based intellectual property protection system innovation project ‘ECHO’ in the second half of last year.
