Appendix A DRM
Digital Rights Management
Digital Rights Management (DRM) is a method of protecting content from illegal distribution by
embedding the content into an encrypted package along with rules dictating its use. Using a set of keys
and a license for the specific file, a DRM application is required to decrypt the content for playback. The
DRM application is transparent to the user except for the cases where the user acquires a file without a
proper license. Applications that interact with DRM encoded files include the following:
•
Media Center
•
MMS
•
EMS
•
Browser
•
Email
•
KJava
