English term or phrase: fixed in a tangible medium
This means that even though a work does not contain a copyright notice, it should be considered copyrighted if it is fixed in a tangible medium (which includes software) unless you know for certain the work is in the public domain, i.e., is no longer under copyright protection or was never copyrighted.

fixé sur un support tangible
Explanation:
I believe it should "on a tangible"... here.
"support tangible" is standard patent-copyright terminology.
See the bilingual reference I give:

"Le terme «logiciel» désigne une collection d’un ou de plusieurs
«programmes» ou «microprogrammes» fixée sur tout support
d’expression tangible."
