Numly Adds Digital Fingerprinting to Copyrights

Numly has added digital asset fingerprinting to its copyrighting services and extended its 256KB upload file limit to 5MB per file. This enhancement allows authors and artists to upload larger digital assets to our services for copyright proof and verification services backed by our Numly Number registration.

Rather than retaining the uploaded file on our servers, we now apply a digital fingerprint in our databases linked to the Numly Number provided at the time of your content registration. Future disputes can validate the document in question by re-uploading it along with the Numly Number (ESN) assigned at the time of registration and we will return a positive or negative validation result based on the authentication of the document.

Numly views this enhancement as a very important step in the future of copyrighting digital media including: audio, video, images, ebooks, and other digital assets.

Note: We are experimenting with the upload file size and may allow for much larger uploads file sizes in the near future. We will also need to apply this update to our Firefox extension and Apple OSX widget.
