DRM stands for Digital Rights Management (rough translation: digital content copyright management) is a series of access control technologies intended to limit infringement of the owner of copyrighted digital content.
In which cases is DRM applicable?
DRM has been applied in many aspects of life, from documents, videos, music and e-books, to proprietary business information, database subscriptions and software. Their creators use DRM not only to prevent unauthorized copying but also to prevent people from changing/editing them.
Here are a few examples.
The Apple iTunes Music Store uses DRM to limit the number of devices that can play music. Music files also contain purchase and activity history data. Or Apple’s IBook is protected by Apple’s FairPlay technology, which requires the iBook reader to be read by Apple devices.
Microsoft users must agree to the terms of use and enter the “key” distributed by the company to install Windows or Office software. Furthermore, their DRM technology called PlayReady is used to make the distribution of audio/video content over the network more secure, helping to prevent unauthorized use.
A wide range of businesses uses DRM to protect documents from partners or employees. They help documents be distributed only to certain people and limit usability. This helps prevent files from being changed, stored, copied, or printed.
Which businesses need DRM
Any company needs to protect digital copyright: the most basic is the content posted on the website, blog…
However, depending on the problem’s level, it affects your company’s business.
For example, for content companies (Netflix, Spotify…) without DRM, how many users will spend money to buy a monthly subscription?
Some of the areas that are in dire need of DRM are companies dealing in online education, entertainment (music, movies…), books… because it directly affects revenue.
