New LexisNexis CopyGuard Combats Growing Problem of Unauthorized Use of Copyrighted MaterialLexisNexis and iParadigms Empower Businesses with the Most Extensive Anti-Plagiarism Solution
DAYTON, Ohio, August 22, 2005 - LexisNexis U.S, a leading provider of news, business and legal information services, today announced the launch of the revolutionary new LexisNexis CopyGuard solution to help detect plagiarism and copyright infringement and protect intellectual property. The LexisNexis CopyGuard product was co-developed with iParadigms, a leader in developing new technologies for intellectual property theft detection and for vetting intellectual property originality.
This innovative solution (www.lexisnexis.com/copyguard) enables users to verify content originality quickly and easily. Within minutes users can search efficiently across billions of documents. There are more than 6.1 billion searchable documents that are continuously updated through the LexisNexis service, including deep archives, and four to five years of archived Web pages from iParadigms, which together create a vast collection of content in one place.
Once a document is submitted to the service, the LexisNexis CopyGuard solution uses advanced pattern-matching technology to identify suspect passages. It then produces a customized originality report that provides underlined excerpts of any relevant text matches and a "similarity index," which provides the exact percentage of text originating from elsewhere. It's an easy and simple way to perform due diligence to detect plagiarism.
"We have a vested interest in this growing problem because of our long-standing relationships with media companies that go back 25 years or more," said Elizabeth Rector, senior vice president of Corporate and Federal Markets for LexisNexis. "By teaming up with the leading provider of plagiarism detection solutions, we can help our customers protect themselves against this growing threat."
Dr. John Barrie, President and CEO of iParadigms, says this alliance with LexisNexis creates a cutting-edge product for the corporate market.
"By bringing together a new search interface, the unparalleled depth and breadth of the LexisNexis database, our constantly growing archived copy of the Internet, and our advanced pattern-matching technology designed for searching whole documents, we have created a cutting-edge product that will benefit the media and business community," said Dr. Barrie. "There is a real need in the corporate market for an advanced solution like this."
