The rapid development of the IT sector requires close attention to the proper protection of intellectual property rights to IT products. The issue of comprehensive protection of computer programs, software and similar products remains largely open.

The finished software product is protected in accordance with the Law of Ukraine “On Copyright and Related Rights” as a literary work.

In order to protect all the same ideas and not just forms of expression, IT products can be protected as inventions or utility models. However, this is a rather lengthy and costly process, which is more appropriate for large IT companies, and not for individuals and small legal entities. Moreover, in the case of patenting IT products, it is often very important to fulfil the condition of “industrial applicability”, since in this case, the product should not be just a theoretical development, but a technical solution to a problem.
