IP Misuse Report Jonathan Dahl IEEE Global Sales & Customer Operations June 23, 2011
Three types of misuse 1. 2. Robotic misuse 3. 2 Member misuse Copyright misuse 3/19/2018
What constitutes misuse? For members… – Shared usage of membership – Excessive downloads by one member – Buying print subs at member prices for organizational use For customers… – Sharing a member’s access with other employees throughout the organization – Sharing IEEE content with other organizations – Reselling IEEE content to other organizations
Member misuse criteria In November 2007 TAB endorsed a “recommendation on member access to SMDLs” – Thresholds are § § > > 100 downloads in 24 hours 500 downloads in one month 5 IP addresses in 24 hours IP addresses than sessions (ie, spoofing)
Some Society Digital Lib subs appear questionable (2010 data) Note: MDL = Member Digital Library SDL = Society Digital Library # of MDL subscription downloads are limited # of SDL subscription downloads are unlimited 4, 286 members subscribe to 3+ SDLs 1, 338 members subscribe to 4+ SDLs 45 members subscribe to 10+ SDLs 5 3/19/2018
Member misuse cases 2008 -2011 average = 45/month, growing slightly 6 3/19/2018
Member Subscriptions to Paid Optional Pubs (March 2011) 190 Members subscribed to 15 -24 journals 455 Members subscribed to 10 -14 journals 1, 690 Members subscribed to 6 -13 journals * does not include subscriptions bundled w/ Society Membership 7 3/19/2018
We’ve had success converting cases of misuse (since implementation 7/08) Year # of conversions Revenue 2008 7 $57 K 2009 12 $127 K 2010 6 $284 K 2011 YTD 5 $92 K Total 30 $560 K * $800 K of IP value still being investigated 8 3/19/2018
Some orgs that substituted member subs for IP packages Exxon Mobil Rockwell Tyco Schneider Electric Supelec Docomo Labs (was IEL) Woods Hole Ocean Inst AIST Japan (was IEL) Canon Lattice Semi (was IEL) Univ of Kent (was IEL) 9 3/19/2018 ABB Fujitsu Marvell Semi Israel Aerospace General Atomics Rafael Conexant (was IEL) Toshiba Bombardier Ericsson Telefonica
2. Robotic misuse Individuals penetrate university sites, steal valid Xplore session IDs, then download from Xplore Rogue usage from “legitimate” users at our customers 10 3/19/2018
Illicit robotic activity Instances per month May 2010 - Apr 2011 11 3/19/2018
3. Copyright Misuse IEEE content is increasingly being posted illicitly on file-sharing services Three biggest are – 4 Shared. com – Rapidshare. com – filesonic. com Work closely with IPR group and D&W 12 3/19/2018

Other Efforts Educating Members: – Friendly email reminders outlining IEEE usage policies to all SDL and MDL subscribers – Monthly emails reminders to new subscribers of Vu. Spec and SDLs IEEE Personal Subscription Webpage: www. ieee. org/go/mypersonalsub New Terms of Use on Xplore were released in Xplore 3. 2… becoming more comprehensive in 2012 IBP release
Other Efforts (continued) Looking to determine “China” strategy Collaborating with peers (OPWG, ASTM) Auto-throttle (hopefully 2011) Net-Insights tracking for individual subs (hopefully 2011)
