What is digital rights management and how does it work

Rating & reviews (0 reviews)
Digital rights management is the technology that is used to protect and monetize intellectual property and copyrighted materials from misuse or theft in the digital sphere. The two core objectives of digital rights management are data protection and data governance.

To bolster overall content protection, business rules were added that define DRM policies, such as when and how the keys can be used. The enforcement of those rules upon the devices used to consume the content came next and with it arrived our current digital rights management definition.

Since the dawn of the digital age, copyright holders have been attempting to address the piracy problem. This was initially software-based, i.e., trying to stop people copying computer games and operating systems. As music, film, television and sports moved into the digital world, rights holders needed to find lightweight, non-intrusive and effective DRM technology solutions to protect their intellectual property.
