| | Digital rights management - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Digital rights management (DRM) is the umbrella term referring to any of several technologies used to enforce pre-defined policies controlling access to software, music, movies, or other digital data and hardware. |  | | DRM provisions have appeared in released versions of some subsystems of the Microsoft Windows operating system (e.g., Windows Media Player) and are scheduled in more as Palladium is implemented in currently planned, not yet released, versions of Microsoft Windows. |  | | Some DRM advocates have taken the position that the operational contexts and design goals of DRM, security, software engineering and cryptography are sufficiently well understood that it is already possible to achieve the desired ends without causing unrelated problems for users or their computers. |

 | | DRM is an acronym commonly used to refer to "digital rights management" technology systems. |  | | DRM alters the distribution of works and in some ways resembles the licensing method that has been used to distribute computer software for years. |  | | While DRM technology is not problematic in and of itself, DRM can be designed and used in ways that raise a number of important concerns. |

 | | Right now, the closest I can come to that is an open source app called VLC, but it's clunky and buggy and it didn't come pre-installed on my computer. |  | | DRM is the software equivalent of these closed hardware interfaces. |  | | Scoble argued that Microsoft's music was a sounder investment, because Microsoft would have more downstream licensees for its proprietary format and therefore you'd have a richer ecosystem of devices to choose from when you were shopping for gizmos to play your virtual records on. |

| | Federated Digital Rights Management: A Proposed DRM Solution for Research and Education |
 | | DRM is recognized as a complex and critical aspect of the lifecycle of a digital object. |  | | Many institutions, for example, have completed the first step in the development of digital collections the digitization and storage of content, and the development of descriptive metadata schemes for discovery and retrieval of that content. |  | | An obvious reason is the need for DRM to support digital library collections, code and software development, distance education, and networked collaboration, among other applications. |

 | | DRM systems for software are often "cracked" by reverse-engineering and modifying their software executable files to circumvent built-in restrictions - typically copying or usage restrictions. |  | | However its use in DRM is contemplated, for example by the OpenIPMP project. |  | | In this context, a codec is a digital algorithm, typically executed in software, which transforms a media signal into a form optimized for transmission or storage, and then transforms it back again. |

| | Digital Rights Management issues in real-time and safety/mission critical systems |
 | | The idea is that DRM agents will be incorporated into software, processors (see note 2), and other computer hardware and the DRM agents will examine files containing programs and data (such as digitized music) to make sure the file is attached to a valid digital passport. |  | | DRM agents have ultimate control of the computer system. |  | | The passport for the operating system will no longer match the passport for the hardware and the DRM agent will not be able to distinguish this case from unlicensed reuse of the operating system in a new computer. |
