Description
METHOD OF COPYING WHICH AVOIDS THE BIT-BY-BIT DUPLICATION OF DIGITAL DATA AND READING DEVICE FOR IMPLEMENTING THE METHOD 5 The present invention relates to a method of copying which avoids the bit-by-bit duplication of digital data arising from a first source on a medium. It also relates to a device used to implement this method. 10 Digital data exhibit the property of being able to be copied without appreciable loss of quality. Indeed, copying consists in transmitting a series of binary information, namely "1"s and "O"s from the source to the recorder device. The errors which 15 customarily occur during copying are easily corrected by using well known error correction methods. Thus, when an information medium or a data source contains digital data, it is relatively simple to record them identically on a recordable medium. 20 To protect digital data against illicit copying, various methods are used. Usually, the supplier furnishes the digital data medium such as the diskette in the case of software, with a mark preventing any copying. 25 Another way of protecting digital data against copying consists in endowing them with a watermark or "tattoo", that is to say with auxiliary data tied to the digital data. The watermark must be non-modifiable and non-erasable. In this case, the reading of the data 30 is done with the aid of a private key which identifies the watermark. Should there be any copying of the watermarked digital data, a private key is required to put the watermark back in place on the copy, without which the copy becomes illegal, being as it is devoid 35 of watermark. The digital data copied without watermark are no longer read by the reader since the latter does not identify the watermark where it ought to find one. Thus, the watermark precludes any copying without the private key.
-2 These known methods of protecting copies are in general effective when the medium is processed by compliant reading or recording apparatuses. However, these methods do not avoid duplication by a pirate who 5 creates a double or clone which is as similar as possible to the original by carrying out what is termed bit-by-bit copying. The aim of the present invention is to propose a method of copying which avoids the unauthorized 10 duplication of digital data arising from a first source on a medium, this method precluding bit-by-bit copying of the digital information. The aim of the present invention is also to provide a reading device comprising circuits allowing 15 the implementation of said method. Accordingly, the subject of the present invention is a method of copying which avoids the bit by-bit duplication of digital data arising from a source of digital data on a medium, characterized in 20 that the medium comprises a serial number used to format the digital data arising from said source of digital data before writing them to said medium. According to a preferred embodiment, the serial number is recorded in an unfalsifiable manner on the 25 medium during its manufacture. For maximum avoidance of any pirating, the serial number is a unique number for each medium or exhibits a low probability of being common to two media. Furthermore, the formatting of the digital data 30 to be duplicated is carried out using a secret-key algorithm such as DES or a public-key algorithm such as RSA, the key being dependent on the serial number. The present invention also relates to a method of copying which avoids the bit-by-bit duplication of 35 digital data read by a reading device and copied onto a medium, characterized in that the medium comprises a serial number and in that the method of copying comprises the following steps: -3 - sending of the serial number recorded on the medium to the reading device, - formatting of the digital data read with the aid of the serial number, and 5 - recording on said medium of the formatted digital data. According to a preferred embodiment, the formatting step is carried out in the reading device. Said reading device furthermore comprises means making 10 it possible to read the medium containing the formatted digital data. According to a further characteristic of the method in accordance with the present invention, before performing the duplication of the digital data, the 15 method comprises a step of checking authorization to copy. The present invention also relates to a reading device comprising a formatting circuit allowing the implementation of said methods of copying described 20 hereinabove. Other characteristics and advantages of the present invention will become apparent on reading the description of a preferred embodiment given with reference to the herein-appended drawing in which: 25 Figure 1 is a diagrammatic view in block form of a reading device and of a recorder device allowing the copying of a first medium onto a second medium. The present invention will be described whilst referring to the reading of digital data recorded on a 30 digital medium such as a DVD standing for Digital Versatile Disc and copied onto a second virgin medium likewise consisting of a DVD which in this case must be recordable, namely a DVD-R. However, it is obvious to the person skilled in the art that other sources of 35 digital information may be used, in particular digital information arising from a decoder and sent by a "broadcaster" or digital information stored on media such as a magnetic tape, a recordable or non-recordable optical disc, namely a CD, a CD-R, CD-RW, DVD, DVD-R, a -4 magneto-optical disc or the like. The recording medium consists of a recordable magnetic tape, a CD-R, a CD RW, a DVD-R or a magneto-optical disc allowing storage of the audio and/or video information in digital form. 5 As represented in figure 1, the method of copying in accordance with the present invention makes it possible to copy the digital information D recorded on a DVD 1 by using a reading device 2 furnished with a formatting circuit 3 and the data FD which may be 10 duplicated are recorded on a DVD-R 4 inserted into a recorder device 5. In accordance with the present invention, the DVD-R 4 consisting of a virgin DVD-R comprises a serial number which is recorded in an unfalsifiable manner 15 during the manufacture of the DVD-R. This serial number which is chosen in such a way as to be unique or to exhibit a very low probability of being present on two different media, is stored in a concealed area of the disc, such as the area entitled the "lead-in area", 20 namely the track lead-in. As explained in greater detail hereinbelow, this serial number is used to format the digital data read from the original DVD 1. In accordance with the method claimed in the present invention, the data read on the DVD 1 by the 25 reading device 2 are sent to a formatting circuit 3 which carries out a formatting of the data by using the serial number read on the virgin DVD-R. Data FD formatted in a specific manner are thus obtained at the output of the reading device and are sent to the 30 recorder device 5 where they are recorded on the DVD R 4. To carry out a formatting of the data such that the data recorded on the DVD-R cannot be copied bit-by bit but can however be read back subsequently by the 35 reading device, namely to make a so-called licit copy, various formatting processes may be used. One of the conventional formatting processes is a secret-key encryption algorithm such as DES standing for "Data Encryption Standard" which is well known to -5 specialists. To avoid any copying by a pirate, the key used in this case will be a key constructed with the aid of a secret key and of the serial number read on the virgin DVD-R. To carry out the formatting using 5 this algorithm, the data recorded on the original DVD are chopped up into blocks of 64 bits then formatted by the DES using a 56-bit key obtained from the serial numbers. 64-bit formatted or enciphered data packets are obtained at the output and are recorded by way of 10 the recorder apparatus 5 on the DVD-R 4. If the key consists of the serial number itself, the serial number will comprise 56 bits. However, the number of bits of the serial number is given by way of example. Indeed, it is possible to apply the invention to media whose 15 serial numbers have lengths of greater than or less than 56 bits. In this case, a truncation or a channel coding can be applied so as to bring these serial numbers to the correct length. If the key is, for security reasons, a function of the serial number, it 20 can be obtained as follows: Given that NS is the serial number of the recording medium, and PS is the parameter stored in a secure manner in the compliant reading devices: - NS and PS are concatenated so as to have a 25 word (NS/PS), - a hash function is applied such as the function SHA-1 (standard of the National Institute of Standards and Technologies) and this results in the word SHA (NS/PS) which has a length of 64 bits, and 30 - this word is truncated so as to have a 56-bit word which will serve as key for the DES. The length of the binary words NS and PS is not fixed, since SHA-1 does not necessitate a precise length for the input word. The function f accommodates 35 any length of serial number. The DVD-R 4 thus copied licitly can be read by the reading device 2 and the original digital data are recovered using the corresponding decryption algorithm.
-6 It is also possible to carry out the formatting of the digital data to be duplicated by using a public key algorithm such as the RSA algorithm. This public key algorithm is an asymmetric algorithm which, when 5 the public key is known, precludes easy copying of the formatted data during their reading by the reading device 2. Since the data located on the copy DVD-R do not have the same structure as the data of the original 10 DVD, it is therefore not possible to recover them with a reading device other than a compliant reading device. Moreover, if a bit-by-bit copy of the original DVD has been made, the reading device of the present invention does not retrieve the original digital information and 15 will not read the copy. According to a further characteristic of the present invention, the method of copying can be preceded by a step of checking authorization to copy such as that described in French patent application 20 No. 98 11860 filed on 23 September 1998 in the name of THOMSON multimedia and entitled "Protection contre la copie de donn6es num6riques stock6es sur un support d'information" [Protection against the copying of digital data stored on an information medium]. This 25 checking of authorization to copy is applied to an information medium comprising a first identification of a cipher of the digital data, a second identification of a watermark of digital data, a first determination of a first mark if it has been possible to identify the 30 cipher and the watermark, a third identification of a type of the information medium, a second determination of a second mark if it has been possible to determine the first mark and if it has been possible to identify a determined type of information medium, a fourth 35 identification of cryptographic signature data accompanying the digital data, a third determination of a third mark if it has been possible to determine the second mark and if it has been possible to identify a cryptographic signature datum and a first delivery of -7 permission for digital copying of the digital data if it has been possible to determine the third mark. All of the characteristics described in this French patent application are incorporated into the 5 present patent application for carrying out the checking of authorization to copy. In accordance with the present invention, the device 2 for reading the digital data which may be a DVD reader, a decoder, a CD reader or the like, 10 comprises a formatting circuit 3 consisting essentially of an integrated circuit including all the means required for carrying out the algorithm chosen for the formatting and making it possible to store in an unfalsifiable manner certain data such as a secret key 15 or means for authorizing copying. The embodiment described hereinabove is given by way of example and can be modified without departing from the framework of the claims herein-enclosed.
