Joint Education Campaign Launched by Federation Against Software Theft and Trading Standards to build awareness in business on illegal use of software.

The Federation Against Software Theft (FAST) has joined forces with Trading Standards in a variety of regions to support its innovative campaign to advise businesses on the issue of software misuse and how to ensure compliance.

The campaign which has commenced with the comprehensive brochure entitled ‘Software - Stay Legal’, is being undertaken throughout the summer and will see Trading Standards teams and FAST educating businesses on a range of issues such as how to buy software, downloading, the types of products to be aware of and the legal ramifications of misuse.

This will be the first of a catalogue of tools and useful information that the Federation will continue to provide to law enforcement as we seek to educate and assist companies with successfully navigating the field of software compliance.
