Digital piracy, or the illegal reproduction and distribution of copyrighted material on the Web, is extensive and growing rapidly. Arxan and iThreat Cyber Group analyzed data collected since 2012 that examined distribution of pirated software and digital assets on the Dark Web and indexed sites that distribute these releases. Entertainment videos accounted for about 50 percent and adult content made up approximately 25 percent of the pirated assets found in 2015. New technologies and applications enable easier access to sites offering pirated releases. Organizations need a concerted focus and a holistic approach to protecting software, including the software that governs digital media.”]
