Can software be patented?
I have researched a software and also have surfed on the internet and came to know that no such software exists, So there can be a possibility that this can be patented, and as this is unique and I know unique things can be patented. But as this is a software so can this be patented. Should I refer an attorney for this. I told this to one of my friends, she stays in Sydney she suggested me to consult cotters registered designs which are in Sydney. She said they have senior attorneys so they can help. Should I go with her suggestions or someone can suggest me a better company to go with.
Patents + Copyrights are only as good as your commitment to enforce them.
For correct enforcement, bring a pile of cash + time.
Also, you'll have to determine all jurisdictions (countries) where you'll have to make filings.
An easier solution for software might be to provide SAAS (software as a service), so the only details of your system surface through your API.
Easy way to protect software is to never disclose details of how it works, behind an API.
