Infringement detection method for software codes

Abstract

The invention relates to an infringement detection method for software codes. The infringement detection method specifically comprises a detection server and a local detection agent; transformed software code key feature information instead of the original form of a software code is transmitted between the detection server and the local detection agent and is stored on a server side; a cloud side detection server is in charge of managing a code feature sample library used for infringement detection and carrying out detection on the basis of an infringement rule; and the local detection agent is in charge of extracting and generating the software code key feature information, reporting the information to a cloud server and carries out localized reading on infringement information issued by the cloud server. Since the method transmits the transformed information between the cloud detection server and the local agent, a software owner does not need to provide a source code, and infringement detection can be carried out astride an organizational boundary. The cloud server positioned in the center can span the organizational boundary, each software development organization does not need to maintain one set of independent sample library, and the cost of the software development organization is lowered. By use of the method, the infringement detection capability of a whole Internet level can be achieved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a computer data processing technology, in particular to a software code infringement detection method. Background technique [0002] Infringement detection of software codes has important practical significance and can help software development organizations avoid legal risks related to intellectual property rights. [0003] Developers in software development organizations are often accustomed to reusing some codes from existing codes for the purpose of improving development efficiency. However, this behavior is sometimes possible and sometimes not, depending on the license status of the code being copied. Especially for open source codes, there are many kinds of licenses, and each license has different constraints. Blind reuse of software is likely to bring serious legal risks to enterprises. For example, if a developer of an enterprise accidentally uses or expands the code that follows the GPL copyright, according to the GP...

If a software organization decides to build a detection system according to the above-mentioned local infringement detection method, it needs to establish a large-scale global sample library, such as collecting open source codes at the entire Internet level, and the cost is huge
