Abstract

Contemporary information network technology is advanced, and various types of data, as an indispensable element of various industries, have given rise to numerous exclusive disputes. The existing legal system has limitations on data protection. The current relevant policies only provide guidance on the direction, but do not provide a structured system or specific laws and regulations. The purpose of this paper is to briefly discuss the way to establish intellectual property protection for data through categorization, to include data in the scope of intellectual property protection, and to solve data disputes with the protection rules of intellectual property law. Among them, categorizing different data based on the way data is accessed and the various forms of data during its lifecycle are the main views at present. In addition, the degree of publicity of data and special data are also considered in this paper. By categorizing and setting up rights through the different characteristics of data, appropriate protection can be provided to various types of data in a targeted manner, in order to achieve an organic combination of the exclusivity of data due to its property nature and the mobility of data due to its marginal incremental benefits.
