Abstract

Piracy is no new lesson to every user of technology. It is a giant existing in the industry of technology numbing the heights software is reaching in terms of efficiency and use in all the sectors to an extent where even the industry of enterprise, beaurocracy, technology etc. depend upon the use of software in various ways to contribute their needs and success. Dollars are running at stakes of any industry while the piracy is acting as a dominator of all illegal transactions indirectly by giving easy and such illegal access to many users. One such victim is the entertainment industry where movies are being pirated and accessed to users causing millions of dollars of loss to the entertainment industry. Many researchers and technical specialists have made their contributions to save technology. Our paper is another potential solution with a promise of accuracy rate in detecting the pirated movies. It is a known fact that primary detection is the source of prevention. Our paper puts forth a technique that efficiency detects piracy to reduce such illegal downloads using the efficient measures of signature generation, normalization in an effective manner.
