Abstract: Due to the development of ICT technologies, simplification of the reproduction, distribution, and information storage the copyright protection becomes more complicated. The high level of violations indicates that the current level of protection of intellectual property rights in the digital environment is insufficient. The efficiency of enforcement mechanisms is one of the key issueswhich have to be tackled. The lack of judicial and administrative enforcement measures, provisional measures, as well as criminal enforcement proceedings and penalties, is considered as a barrier to digital trade development. Nevertheless, individual countries have particular experience that can be used as an example of best regulatory practices.
