What Is DRM? Understanding Digital Rights Management

eSecurity Planet

Digital rights management (DRM) is an encryption technology that enforces creator’s rights. Digital rights management wraps digital data into an encrypted wrapper tied to a license that contains the rules for how the content may be used. The management software will also track encrypted file use and continuously enforce digital rights.
