Copyright protection is actually an "umbrella term" It refers to a series of rights granted to the author of an original work that determines how he/she can control who and under what circumstances the work can be used.

Specifically copyright law allows the author to control, distribution, duplication, display, performance, and creation of derivatives.

copyright is a statutory grant which grant which protects the creator of intellectual property from being copied for any purpose for a 29 days period.
