The DCI system uses the innovative model of online copyright registration of digital works as a basic means to assign permanent DCI codes and DCI marks to digital works on the Internet, issue digital copyright registration certificates, and use electronic signatures and digital certificates to establish a reliable and verifiable security authentication system, thereby providing basic public service support for copyright-related parties in the digital network environment for copyright confirmation, authorization and protection.

By assigning a unique DCI code to each digital work copyright, all digital works on the Internet that have been registered for copyright can have a unique identity. Through the query and verification of the DCI code, the authenticity of the copyright of the work can be confirmed and the copyright ownership of the digital work can be clarified, thereby realizing the online monitoring, evidence collection, and protection of the copyright of digital works, and achieving the purpose of copyright protection.

The specific graphics of DCI on the copyright operation platform or terminal are transformed into DCI marks. The mark uses encapsulation technology to intuitively display copyright information on the front end, and is associated with the digital work copyright registration information database of the China Copyright Protection Center through parsing technology, realizing online identification and verification of digital work copyright information on the Internet. The electronic copyright registration certificate uses encryption technology and electronic signature technology to encapsulate the right holder, work name, copyright information and DCI code into a digital work copyright registration certificate. Through the verification mechanism of the certificate, the copyright of the work can be automatically verified in the digital network environment, serving the copyright verification needs in e-government and business.

The DCI system is a digital copyright public service system built through a systematic integrated application platform with DCI identification, verification, feature extraction and monitoring and evidence collection as the core support. The DCI system has three basic functions: digital work copyright registration, copyright fee settlement certification, and monitoring and evidence collection for rapid rights protection. Comprehensive support has been established to establish a full-process copyright comprehensive service system including copyright confirmation, authorization, and rights protection, and it is embedded and connected with the existing Internet copyright operation platform to realize integrated services in the form of embedded services. Through the DCI system, all relevant parties in the society can easily check the right holder and ownership status of the work, confirm the authenticity of the copyright of the work, and provide basic guarantees for the copyright protection of digital works. At the same time, through the DCI system’s copyright fee settlement certification and monitoring and evidence collection to quickly safeguard rights, a neutral, fair and transparent third-party copyright fee settlement and copyright benefit sharing mechanism will be established, which will effectively solve the problems that have troubled creators and the industry, such as the difficulty in clarifying the ownership of rights, the difficulty in achieving transparent settlement, and the difficulty in curbing piracy and infringement.

The DCI system is a digital copyright public service system guided by technical standards, driven by model innovation, supported by technological innovation, and guaranteed by mechanism innovation. The DCI system is my country’s independently innovative and controllable digital copyright public service innovation system.
