How does the IKR work?
What is the IKR fingerprint?
How & what should I IKR?
The IKR record provides Proof of Existence (PoE) of your digital document via:
-
A unique digital fingerprint which identifies your digital document
-
An international time and date stamp associated with the digital fingerprint
The IKR fingerprint uniquely identifies your document with proven cryptographic technology (similar to that used in Blockchain). However, the actual content of your document is kept secret - just like a person cannot be regerenated from a fingerprint, the document can not be regerenated from the IKR fingerprint.
The IKR proves existance without disclosure. Unlike Blockchain, the IKR fingerprint is held by a global neutral authority, WIPO (U.N.).
Using the IKR is easy, just register to use the IKR here and get started.
Use the IKR on digital files that you value – your secret ideas, designs, new compositions, recipes, etc. You can use it with any electronic document.
