The customer challenge

High-value imagery needs to reach production without being freely copied or produced beyond agreed limits. Owners of premium and limited-edition work need confidence in how, where and how many times their content is printed.

The Cloudstore approach

Cloudstore separates clearly distinct controls: securing assets, controlling access, authorising production, logging jobs, supporting edition control, and supporting authentication and provenance. Each addresses a different part of protecting valuable content.

Core capabilities

  • Asset security within secure cloud vaults
  • Access control over who can use content
  • Production authorisation to approved destinations
  • Job logging for an auditable record
  • Edition control for limited runs
  • Authentication and provenance support

How it works

  1. Secure

    Assets are held within secure cloud vaults.

  2. Authorise

    Production is permitted only to approved destinations.

  3. Produce

    Print data is streamed for production under those rules.

  4. Record

    Each job is logged to support provenance and edition control.

Use cases

  • Limited edition and premium prints
  • Fine art and collectible works
  • Museum and gallery editions
  • Rights-controlled catalogues

Business benefits

  • Greater control over valuable content
  • An auditable record of production
  • Support for edition control and provenance
  • Confidence for rights owners and buyers

Frequently asked questions

No. Controlled access, authorisation and logging reduce risk and support provenance, but no system can make unauthorised copying impossible.
