Abstract: The software industry is experiencing rapid technological advancements along with heavy R&D investments and tougher competition. It is seeking concrete protection of its work within the available legal structures of IPR. Though the IPR system provides protection for almost all types of creations from human minds, it is proving to be insufficient in protecting software under the different IPR tools available. Each of the IPR tools has advantages, but when considered for protection of software, their limitations weight more than their advantages. An attempt is made in this paper to put forth a review about the complexity of software and its protection in accordance with the available tools for IPR protection.
