Irish company Digiprove announces Text & Tweet Protect


Irish company Digiprove announces  Text & Tweet Protect

During the recent Presidential TV debate where information from a Tweet was used live during the debate and it was later admitted the Tweets claim was false, however the damage was done to the leading Independent candidate. Following this incident and several others where high profile individuals were misrepresented and a series of malicious Tweets issued, Digiprove looked to developing a simple, cost effective solution using its patented digital content security technology, which would enable greater trust in who is Tweeting? And what they have Tweeted?

This week they released the first in a planned series of on-line solutions for social media content provenance, integrity and authenticity protection and verification for Twitter.

Twitter offer a verification mark for high profile celebrities and individuals which has comprehensive identity verification and a blue mark is added to these user names on Twitter, however this option is not freely available to the masses.

“What is important is that the reader of a Tweet knows the Tweet is from a credible source, and what was read in the Tweet is actually what the Tweeter sent. The Digiprove text function achieves this allowing the reader of the Tweet check the digital certificate for that Tweet by following a short link inserted into the Tweet, says Digiprove CEO Cian Kinsella”

Digiprove is an Irish technology company who provide solutions for individuals and business  to protect any type of Digital content, securing its provenance, integrity and authenticity and enabling any 3rd party verify these on-line. Users of the patented technology include individuals wishing to protect their copyright to businesses who have integrated the Digiprove process into their own software. The technology has applications in many business arenas including Regulatory compliance, Digital evidence & eDiscovery, creating trust in digital content and creating tamper evidence. Anywhere Digital information is used to make important decisions or take action either by an individual or an organisation this technology secures trust in the digital content used.

Protect Digital content before Facebook, UTube and Flickr upload



Are your uploads and blogs important to you ?

Whether you are a frequent or occasional publisher of digital content to the Web , have you considered the consequences of unauthorised use of your content ? The answer we most frequently hear is either “ I never thought of that” or “How do I do that”.

Digital content whether it be text, images, photos, audio files or video files are extremely easy to copy, modify and re-use and therefore are open to abuse. The abuse can be malicious or inadvertent and cause reputational damage and/or financial loss.  Alternatively the published content may  just be personally important to you, your organisation, your family ,friends, members, customers, suppliers and colleagues.

So if you use Social Media such as Facebook, UTube, Flickr, and LinkedIn or publish to Websites, Blogs and Forums, you should consider protecting your content. You want to know if it has been accessed and interfered with and/or re used/republished.

Regardless of security systems, abuse still occurs with published and unpublished digital content. In the event your digital content has been misused you want to have evidence firstly that you own the content and also evidence that it has been tampered with. Ultimately whether it was erroneous or malicious that your important content was used you will require this evidence to persuade the party at fault to take action and correct the issue or you may need that evidence in the worst case to seek legal redress for reputational or financial damages.
