Since 2013, iQIYI has been working on the research and development of digital rights management systems. At present, its self-developed DRM and watermarking system have passed ChinaDRM's security evaluation tests. iQIYI has established a comprehensive copyright protection system that spans across video source protection, streaming-end protection, and piracy tracking. Built upon technologies including white-box cryptography, anti-debugging, and obfuscation. iQIYI's DRM protection system ensures a highly secured environment for software operation and copyrighted digital content. In terms of factors such as security, robustness and so on, iQIYI App takes at least 30 days to be decrypted in order to pirate content from the platform, setting a high bar for decryption and greatly enhancing the level of copyright protection.

According to the copyright report from a third-party, the cost of piracy has now become lower while its source is more difficult to be traced and completely eradicated. Effective copyright protection serves as the foundation to promote the continuous innovation of IP content and business models in the streaming industry. Going forward, iQIYI will continue leading the promotion of content copyright in the online video industry worldwide and dedicate itself to the field of digital copyright.
