  ABSTRACT: The necessity to bring some sanity into the activities associated with the creation of copyright works and to address the egregious infringement of copyright in the nation is positively addressed by regulations. The current condition and difficulties with copyright enforcement in the online and digital environment are examined in this essay. It also looks at the regulatory measures taken to deal with the pervasive issue of piracy. By looking into the main issues of copyright protection, the nature and impact of copyright protection, the online and digital world, comparative analysis, and the Regulatory response to digital technology, the article places the topic in its proper doctrinal perspective. The study discovered that while Nigeria’s current regulatory response regime appears to be trying its best, it falls short when compared to other jurisdictions around the world. It is advised that a framework be developed to align with global best practices.
