lol id better check then. That was the point of it, well and using our logo etc.

Maybe it justs protects the logo then?

[Guest Oxo]

Think its the logo.

As your example of Coca Cola, that is both a registered logo and trademark.

coke, mc d's are all protected by lawyers rather than mere trade marks, you simply bully those that infringe on your brand by taking them to a court they can't afford !

every region has a nova, guardian, home guard , sentry, advance, intruder, Hi Tech ect.... or similar spellings

[digitalwitness]

If it is anything like over here, you can register a company name similar to an existing name as long as there is some difference and its not identical(not the case with registering a business name, no real checks are done here). The registered company name is not business sector specific, security could be IT security for example.

A trademark is different as the name suggests its registered for a specific trade, this can be text or logo or both depending on how it is registered but cannot be used by anyone else within the same industry without infringing the trade mark. AFAIK

trademark law isnt straightforward. logo's, names are important but you have a battle on when trade marking a generic phrase or symbol.

you also have to specify industryłmarket sectors
