Digital Rights Management
Digital Rights Management, or DRM, is a class of technologies that allow rights owners to set and enforce terms by which people use their intellectual property.
Rights owners are typically copyright-holding companies like music, film, book or software publishers. They use DRM to control how documents, entire software programs, or even e-mails are used.
Most often media companies use DRM to curb piracy of their content by restricting users' ability to copy it, though it can also be used to create new business models like subscriptions to a large library of music.
How does DRM work?
DRM is a two-part scheme. It relies on encryption to protect the content itself and authentication systems to ensure that only authorised users can unlock the files.
When applied, DRM scrambles the data in a file rendering it unreadable to anyone without the appropriate unlocking key.
Authentication systems stand between users and the decryption keys, ensuring that only people with the proper permissions can obtain a decryption key.
Without a username and password or if a file has been decrypted too many times, the system will not provide the key. This means digital books with DRM, for example, can be swapped over the internet and remain unusable to those who have not paid for them.
The digital revolution that has empowered consumers to use digital content in new and innovative ways has also made it nearly impossible for copyright holders to control the distribution of their property. Enter "digital rights management," or DRM. In this article, we'll find out what DRM is, how copyright holders are implementing the concept and what the future holds for digital content control.
DRM Basics
Digital rights management is a far-reaching term. It encompasses any scheme to control access to copyrighted material using technological means. In essence, DRM removes usage control from the person in possession of digital content and puts it in the hands of a computer program. The applications and methods are endless -- here are just a few examples of digital rights management:
• A company sets its servers to block the forwarding of sensitive e-mail.
• An e-book server restricts access to, copying and printing of material based on constraints set by the copyright holder of the content.
• A movie studio includes software on its DVDs that limits the number of copies a user can make to two.
• A music label releases titles on a type of CD that includes bits of information intended to confuse ripping software.
E-books
Electronic books read on a personal computer or an e-book reader typically use DRM restrictions to limit copying, printing, and sharing of e-books. E-books are usually limited to a certain number of reading devices and some e-publishers prevent any copying or printing.
Prevent intellectual property theft and ensure complete information control. Stop copying, prevent printing, and control the sharing of your documents and web content. Protect documents inside and outside your organization, and instantly revoke access to your secure information at any stage. Control your intellectual property (IPR) securely regardless of where it resides, reduce publishing costs, ensure regulatory compliance with business processes (e.g. SOX), establish new revenue generation techniques: these are just some of the business benefits of implementing DRM solutions.
