Register software and intellectual protection of software, in its versions source and object, are covered by the law 11.723 of intellectual property, which establishes that concerned computer programs are considered as literary, scientific or artistic works under the terms of the law. Obviously, this means that the software applies the rules on intellectual property. Use license agreements may also enroll.
Intellectual property 11.723 Act provides that “the lack of registration brings as a consequence the suspension of the right of the author until the moment in which takes place it,” recovering those rights in the Act of registration, for the term and conditions appropriate, without prejudice to the validity of the reproductions, editions, performances and any other publication made during the time that the work was not registered.
On the other hand, be noted that in countries like the United States may protect software inventions as patent.
Therefore, in each case specifically and attentive to the global expansion of these programs there must be a special strategy in this regard, service that our study provides with proven experience and efficiency.
