Copyright Protection of Digital Content in Vietnam’s Internet Age

Abstract

The digital content sector in Vietnam is viewed as a "new gold mine”, with a multi-billion-dollar industry. We look at Vietnam's legislative framework for copyright protection, which includes both Intellectual Property, and Cybersecurity Laws. The paper contends that while technology can help address some of the issues of preserving digital content, it is not a cure-all and must be used together with legal and educational measures. The significance of international cooperation in preserving digital content is highlighted.  Finally, this research presents a complete analysis of Vietnam's current legal framework for copyright protection of digital information, as well as an assessment of the obstacles and limitations in enforcing these laws. It further highlights the importance of international collaboration in digital content protection and asks for increased efforts to deepen cooperation in this area, and is aimed at policymakers, legal professionals, and scholars interested in copyright protection and digital material in Vietnam.
