Project duration

TALISMAN is an ACTS project that started on September 1st, 1995 for a duration of 3 years.
TALISMAN derives from a RACE project: ACCOPI RACE project M1005 like OKAPI.

Main objectives

TALISMAN aims to provide European Union service providers with a standard copyright mechanism to protect their digital products against large scale commercial piracy and illegal copying.
With the increasing availability of digitally stored information and the development of new multimedia services, security questions are becoming ever more urgent.
The acceptance of new servicers depends on whether suitable techniques for the protection of the information providers'interests are available.
One problem that has not found a solution yet is the one of how to realise copyright protection for digitally stored data.
