Step S204: The payment server 15 confirms whether the client has paid. Here, when the user terminal completes the ordering (step S203), the usage fee of the digital copyrighted goods that it subscribes to must also be paid, so the cloud digital copyright trading platform 1 of the present invention uses the payment server 15 to receive and process related information. Payment process. In a preferred embodiment, the payment server 15 is coupled to a bank financial card system, a credit card system, or an automated teller machine system for directly and immediately knowing the information of the payment by the client and the amount of the payment. Therefore, if the result of the determining step is "NO", the determining step is re-executed; if the result is "Yes", one of the steps S2051, S2052 is performed.

Step S2051: Assign the cloud virtual space 13 to the corresponding client terminal 11; then, step S2053: register the cloud virtual space 13 as a dedicated cloud name account. In this way, the client 11 can have a personal cloud digital file space and a dedicated account of the cloud digital file space, so that the cloud virtual space 13 is assigned to the client 11 and provides a hard disk space for the client 11 to store. The digital file it ordered. Generally speaking, in terms of file size, the video file is larger than the image file, and the image file is larger than the plain text file; therefore, if the digital copyrighted product is the content of the movie (for example, a movie), at least 1 GB or more is sufficient for storage. The digital copyrighted product. Therefore, in the preferred embodiment, the cloud virtual space 13 assigned to the client 11 should be at least 5~10 GB, so that the user 11 can subscribe to digital copyrighted products of multiple movie categories. In this embodiment, the client terminal 11 assigns the cloud virtual space 13 to the client terminal 11 at or after the first payment. In other embodiments, the cloud virtual space 13 can also be assigned to the client 11 when the client 11 logs in for the first time, or can be assigned to the client 11 when the client 11 first subscribes.

Step S2052: The registration center server 18 sets the usage time, the number of uses, the printing permission, the copying permission, the editing permission or the reading permission of the digital copyrighted product of the user to open the digital copyrighted product; wherein the purpose of the setting is Preventing others from stealing, copying, using, printing, editing or reading the digitally copyrighted product, maliciously or without authorization, stealing, copying, using, printing, editing or reading the unpaid or unauthorized Digital copyrighted goods that cause infringement. In order to prevent the occurrence of infringement, the present invention uses the registration center server 18 to set the usage time, the number of uses, the printing permission, the copy permission, the editing permission or the read permission of the digital copyrighted product, and the time, the number of times, the permission The restriction can be made by the copyright provider 12. Therefore, the user can pay and prevent infringement.

In addition, in other embodiments, the above steps S2051 and S2052 may of course be omitted, that is, in the cloud digital rights commodity management method according to the present invention, steps S2051 and S2052 are optional steps.

Step S206: The registration center server 18 provides the client private key.

Step S207: The digital copyrighted product of the order is opened with the private key of the client. That is, after the payment server 15 accepts or confirms the payment of the client 11, the registry server 18 can provide a corresponding private key of the client, so that the client 11 can be opened with the private key of the client. The digital copyrighted goods stored in the cloud virtual space 13.

Step S208: Copy the opened digital copyrighted product to the cloud virtual space 13. Therefore, after the user terminal 11 finishes using the digital copyrighted product, the step is convenient for the user terminal 11 to directly store the cloud virtual space 13 owned by the user, so as to directly open the file of the digital copyrighted product in subsequent use.

Next, the cloud digital rights management method of the present invention can also have the functions of statistical analysis and search and retrieval. Please refer to FIG. 1A and FIG. 1D simultaneously. FIG. 1D is a flowchart of a cloud digital rights management method for statistics and retrieval functions according to the present invention. As shown in FIG. 1A and FIG. 1D, the cloud digital rights management method includes the following steps: Step S3011: The type and quantity of all digital copyrighted goods are counted by the data statistics server 14; Step S3012: Statistics by the data statistics server 14 The number and quantity of the digital copyrighted goods that the user pays or orders; the step S3013: the statistical information server 14 counts the number and quantity of the digital copyrighted products uploaded by a specific copyright supply terminal; step S3014: through the registration center server 18 Searching and searching all digital copyrighted products; therefore, the cloud digital rights management method of the present invention can use the data statistics server 14 to count the types and quantities of all digital copyrighted products, or to count the payment of the client. Or the type and quantity of the digital copyrighted product ordered, or the type and quantity of the digital copyrighted product uploaded by a specific copyright supply terminal, of course, the registration center server 18 can also search and search the above digital copyrighted product for use. Achieve statistical analysis. The statistical analysis may be the most popular digital copyright product category, a certain digital copyrighted product with the highest click rate, the copyright supplier or writer with the most products, the individual user with the highest subscription rate, and the like.

In addition, the cloud digital copyright transaction platform of the present invention can further have the function of a digital signature. Please refer to FIG. 1A and FIG. 1E simultaneously. FIG. 1E is a flowchart of a digital signature management method for cloud digital rights according to the present invention. As shown in FIG. 1A and FIG. 1E, the cloud digital rights management method includes the following steps:

Step S401: The registration center server 18 sends a request message of a digital signature and generates a relay file. The request message of the digital signature is transmitted to the copyright provider 12 through the cloud. The relay file may be temporarily stored in the registration center server 18, the storage server 17, or the cloud virtual space 13; the advantage of temporarily storing in the registration center server 18 is that the overall transfer and access operations are faster. The advantage of temporarily storing in the storage server 17 or the cloud virtual space 13 is that the hardware resources of the registry server 18 are saved (because any use and operation of all the copyright providers 12 and the client 11 are required to pass through The registry server 18).

Step S402: The copyright provider 12 inputs and returns a corresponding signature summary value according to the request message of the digital signature; wherein the "signature summary value" returned by the copyright provider 12 is to join the digit The signature message of the content, the signature message may be a signature reason, contact information, background image, field location or data size, or even any text content, audio content, video content, image content or at least one or more a combination of the above.

Step S403: The registration center server 18 embeds the signature summary value in the relay file. Specifically, after returning the corresponding signature summary value, the registry server 18 can process the signature digest value through an encryption algorithm, which can be a hash function encryption algorithm and a SHA1 encryption algorithm. Method, MD5 encryption algorithm, etc.; the purpose of the encryption action is to prevent unauthorized third parties from lifting, eliminating or erasing the digital signature. After the encryption is completed, the registry server 18 officially embeds the signature summary value in the relay file; here, the relay file is an electronic file of two or more different formats when combined. The conversion file (or "relay file") that it generates.

Step S404: The registration center server 18 generates a signed digital copyrighted product and stores it in the cloud virtual space 13; that is, when the signed digital copyrighted product is produced, it has been unsigned. The difference in digital content is that the "signed digital copyrighted product is a file with a digital watermark; of course, the digital watermarked file can be a Visible watermarking or a concealed watermark. .

Step S405: The registration center server 18 loads the signed digital copyrighted product into a digital universal lock or embeds a digital copyright tag (drTag). Further, each time the copyright provider 12 completes the production of the digital copyrighted product, the cloud digital copyright trading platform 1 reports back to the registry server 18, causing the registry server 18 to generate a unique set of unique The exclusive "digital rights multi-purpose lock" and "digital rights master key". The digital universal lock is attached to the goods of each digital copyrighted product. Other unauthorized third parties crack the merchandise encryption of the digital copyrighted product, and the digital universal lock will automatically destroy or prevent the formation of the aforementioned transaction, making it impossible to trade normally on the cloud digital copyright trading platform 1. Each time it is legal When the digital copyright commodity commodity is traded, the private key of the copyright provider 12 and the private key of the client 11 are required to obtain the digital copyright commodity universal key from the appeal center server 18 for opening. The digital copyright product enables the registry server to always grasp the flow and use of the digital copyright product. If the digital universal lock cannot be opened, it means that the transaction will not be copied. Even if the digital copyrighted product is stored on a hard disk, a flash drive, a memory, or resold and sold, it cannot be used. copy.

In addition, the cloud digital rights trading platform 1 allows creators, publishers, and copyright holders to legally apply for and register a "Digital Rights Code." And use this exclusive code to create a unique digital copyright tag (drTag) for your digital copyrighted goods. The digital copyright tag (drTag) has the function of collecting transaction information, and each time the transaction is made, it will actively notify the clearing center 19 (Digital Rights Clearing House, DRCH) as shown in FIG. 1A, and achieve the purpose of payment and liquidation. The digital copyright tag requires various corresponding private keys for verification when passing through the provider cloud (ie, the copyright provider 12) and the consumer cloud (ie, the client terminal 11). Therefore, the cloud digital rights management method of the present invention can convert the digital content into encrypted digital content by using the digital signature technology without affecting the quality of the digital content, and then add the digital copyright tag (drTag). A complete "digital copyrighted product" packaged.

In this way, the cloud digital copyright transaction platform 1 of the present invention can further generate and use a digital signature for the digital copyrighted product, and increase the effectiveness of the certification, copy protection, and copyright owner (or copyright creator) name. And the purpose of preventing CD, DVD, and e-book piracy problems; and, also, preventing illegal sales, and having the function of tracking the IP location of the "digital copyrighted goods", the sales pipeline and the stored location and the location of the database, Then find a digital copyrighted product that actually sells illegal counterfeiting. FIG. 1H is a flowchart of a method for managing the prevention of misappropriation or illegal dissemination of digital copyrighted goods according to the present invention.

Step S701: When the user illegally copies or propagates the digital copyrighted product, step S702: the digital copyrighted product will retain the digital watermark, the digital universal lock will be automatically locked and cannot be used, and the internal program of the digital copyright label will actively report the IP bit of the user terminal. The address and database location is given to the registry server 18. Step 703 is used by the registry server 18 to track the IP location of the "digital copyrighted goods", the sales pipeline and the location stored in the cloud and the database, to find the database address of the illegally forged "digital copyrighted goods". And actively send the illegally forged facts and evidence and the database address to the national intellectual property protection agency (the “Baozhi Brigade” of the Ministry of the Interior’s Police Department in Taiwan) through the cloud to make the intellectual property The protection agency can directly conduct investigations and strikes.

In addition, the foregoing steps S401 to S404 may be followed by any one of the foregoing steps S103, S104, S105, or S1052, and the purpose thereof is: after the copyright provider 12 uploads the digital copyrighted product, Any time to select the desired digital signature, combined with the selected digital file; further, different digital files can have different digital signatures (or digital watermarks). Of course, there are other embodiments of the invention. Please refer to FIG. 2. FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram of a cloud digital copyright transaction platform according to a second embodiment of the present invention.
