What IsisIt It
Copyright is a legal device authorizing the creator of a literary
piece, artistic work, musicals or other creative compositions the sole
right to publish and sell such work. Copyright owners have the right
to control the reproduction of their work, including the right to
receive payment for that reproduction. An author may grant or sell
those rights to others, including publishers or recording companies.
Violation of such right is called infringement.
Copyright law gives creators of original material the exclusive right
to further use and duplicate that material for a given amount of
time, at which point the copyrighted item becomes public domain.

What
What IsisIt It
Plagiarism is an instance of using or closely imitating the language
and thoughts of another author without authorization; the
representation of that author's work as one's own, as by not
crediting the original.
Phishing is a cybercrime in which a target or targets are contacted
by email, telephone or text message by someone posing as a
legitimate institution to lure individuals into providing sensitive data
such as personally identifiable information, banking and credit card
details, and passwords. The information is then used to access
important accounts and can result in identity theft and financial
loss.

What
What IsisIt It
The fair use of a copyrighted work for criticism, comment, news,
reporting, teaching including multiple copies for classroom use,
scholarship, research and similar purposes is not an infringement of
copyright.
Decompilation which is the reproduction of the code and translation
of the forms of the computer programs to achieve the inter-
operability of an independently created computer program with
other programs, may also constitute fair use.

What
What IsisIt It
To determine whether use of a work constitutes fair use, the
following factors are considered:
1. The purpose and character of the use, including whether such
use is of a commercial nature or is for non-profit educational
purposes;
2. The nature of the copyrighted work;
3. The amount and substantiality of the portion used in relation to
the copyrighted work as a whole; and
4. The effect of the use upon the potential market for or value of the
copyrighted work.
